o tore bina o tore bina
jindagi bekar hai o baalam
o baalam o baalam o baalam
solha singar kiye aayi main sajke
baaje payal mori jhan jhan karke
solha singar kiye aayi main sajke
baaje payal mori jhan jhan karke
o dekh meri haye dekh meri aankho mein pyar hai
o baalam o baalam o baalam
o tore bina jinadgi bekar hai
o baalam o baalam o baalam

naachu main taro ki odh ke chundariya
aaya hai dil mera tujh pe sanwariya
ho tujh pe sanwariya ho tujh pe sanwariya
tujh pe sanwariya ho
naachu main taro ki odh ke chundariya
aaya hai dil mera tujh pe sanwariya
o tu hi mera o tu hi mera banka dildar hai
o baalam o baalam o baalam

bhanware deewane meri julfo ki jaal par
duniya meri mastani chal par
o tore bina jeet mori haar hai
o tore bina o tore bina
jindagi bekar hai o balam
o baalam o baalam o baalam

Without you, without you,
Life is lost, my beloved.
My love, my love, my love.

Sixteen adornments, I came adorned,
My anklets chime, their music born.
Sixteen adornments, I came adorned,
My anklets chime, their music born.
Look into my eyes, oh, behold my love,
My love, my love, my love.
Without you, life is lost,
My love, my love, my love.

I dance, draped in starlight's sheen,
My heart has come to you, my green.
To you, my green, to you, my green,
To you, my green, to you.
I dance, draped in starlight's sheen,
My heart has come to you, my green.
You are my love, you are,
My love, my love, my love.

The bees are mad for my hair's embrace,
The world is drunk on my spirited pace.
Without you, winning turns to loss,
Without you, without you,
Life is lost, my beloved.
My love, my love, my love.
