Ud udke teri zulfein
Your hair, flying about

Karti hai kya ishaare
Is making such gestures

Dil thaamke khade hain
Clutching their hearts

Aashiq sabhi kunwaare
All the lovesick bachelors are standing
--------------------------------------

Chhup jaaye saari kudiyaan
All the girls hide

Ghar mein sharam ke maare
In the house from embarrassment

Gaaon mein aa gaye hain
Into the village have come

Paagal shaher ke saare
The crazy ones from the city

Main ek jawaan ladka
I am a youthful boy

Tu ek haseen ladki
You are a beautiful girl

Yeh dil machal gaya tho
If this heart flip-flopped

Mera kusoor kya hai
Is it my fault?
------------------------------------------

Rakhna tha dil pe kaabu
You are supposed to keep control on your heart

Yeh husn to hai jaadu
This beauty of mine does the magic

Jaadu yeh chal gaya tho
If this magic was casted

Mera kusoor kya hai
Is it my fault?
--------------------------------------
