Mukaalaa mukaabla hoga o laila --- (2)
Zaalim hasinaa badi manchali hai
Par main kya karun teri masti chadhi hai
Neend uda ke chain churayega tera
Mukaalaa mukaabla...

[Badi shokh chanchal hai meri tabiyat
 Mera jism hai sang-e-marmar ki murat]--- (2)
Bahut Khuub hai teri zulfon ka phanda
Kahaan ud ke jaayega ab ye parinda
Ud nahin paayega matwala tera chhaila

[Mukaalaa mukaablaa hoga o chhaila]--- (2)
Zaalim deewana bada sarphira hai
Ungali pakad ke ye sar pe chadha hai
Aag lagaungi dam ghut jaayega tera
Mukaalaa mukaablaa ...

[Mujhe tu bata teri kya hai tamanna
 Tujhe ishq ne kar diyaa hai nikamma
 Mujhe tune lutaa hai nazrein ladake
 Badi Khush hai suuli pe mujhko chadha ke]--- (2)
Haay mar jaayega matwala tera chhaila
Mukaalaa mukaablaa ...
