chahe rat ka koi pal ho
kaun yaha sota hai hungama hota hai
chahane walo ki ek bhid si
sath me chalti hai wo ladki jab
wo ladki jab ghar se nikalti hai
chahane walo ki ek bhid si
sath me chalti hai wo ladki jab
wo ladki jab ghar se nikalti hai

dekhne walo ke hotho se
dua nikalti hai wo ladki jab
wo ladki jab ghar se nikalti hai

zulf jo khul jaye zulf jo khul jaye
mausam ko khusbu se bhar degi
diwana kar degi diwana kar degi
dekhne wale fisal jaye
wo aise sambhalti hai wo ladki jab
wo ladki jab ghar se nikalti hai
wo ladki jab ghar se nikalti hai

rashte me wo mil jaye to
rashte me wo mil jaye to aise ghabrati hai
anjan nazar aati hai
anjan nazar aati hai
koi na uske paas aaye
koi na uske paas aaye
rang aisa badalti hai wo ladki jab
wo ladki jab ghar se nikalti hai
wo ladki jab ghar se nikalti hai

In the hush of any night's embrace,
Who truly sleeps? A storm takes place.
A throng of hearts, a seeking tide,
That walks beside, when she does stride,
When she departs her haven's keep,
A throng of hearts, a journey deep,
That walks beside, when she does roam,
When she departs, and ventures home.

From lips that gaze, a blessing streams,
When she appears, in waking dreams,
When she departs, her presence bright.

If tresses loose, their freedom find,
And scent the air, for all mankind,
Will fill the world, with fragrant grace,
And drive the soul to every place.
And madness blooms, a fevered art,
The viewers stumble, break apart,
But with such grace, she finds her way,
When she departs, toward dawning day,
When she departs, her soul's display.

If met along the dusty track,
If met along, her courage cracks,
With sudden fear, a shy retreat,
An unknown face, she has to meet.
An unknown face, a guarded plea,
None dare approach, to set her free,
So quickly then, her colors shift,
When she departs, a silent gift,
When she departs, her life adrift.
