Roman Transliteration/English Translation of the original Urdu-Hindi Lyrics:
Note: One version has “raane.n” (thighs) instead of “Taange.n” (legs) in the song.
nange baazoo.n, nangee Taange.n,
NAKED ARMS, NAKED LEGS,
husn ka yeh mayyaar nahee.n,
THESE AREN’T THE ACME OF BEAUTY,
‘Uryaanee se, lutf uThaaoo.n,
THAT I SHOULD DERIVE PERVERT PLEASURE FROM NUDITY,
rooh meree bimaar nahee.n,
MY SPIRIT IS NOT SICK!
nange baazoo.n, nangee Taange.n,
NAKED ARMS, NAKED LEGS,
husn ka yeh mayyaar nahee.n,
THESE AREN’T THE ACME OF BEAUTY,
‘Uryaanee se, lutf uThaaoo.n,
THAT I SHOULD DERIVE PERVERT PLEASURE FROM NUDITY,
rooh meree bimaar nahee.n,
MY SPIRIT IS NOT SICK!
nange baazoo....
NAKED ARMS...

YOUR BODY IS GOD’S SECRET,

DON’T EXPOSE IT BEFORE HUMAN BEINGS,

aa.nkh shamaa se, kab haTtee hai,
THE EYE DOESN’T MOVE AWAY FROM THE FLAME
jab tak voh faanoos me.n ho,
AS LONG AS IT IS IN THE GLASS-SHADE,
aa.nkh shamaa se, kab haTtee hai,
THE EYE DOESN’T MOVE AWAY FROM THE FLAME
jab tak voh faanoos me.n ho,
AS LONG AS IT IS IN THE GLASS-SHADE,

ON BEING UNVEILED, THEN NO ONE

chorus: la la la la la la~~~~~lalalala lalalala lalla lalla la lalla~~~

kahaa.n bikaa suraj kaa sonaa,
WHERE WAS THE GOLD FROM THE SUN SOLD?
kisne dekhee, chaand kee chaandee,
HAS ANYONE SEEN THE SILVER OF THE MOON?
kahaa.n bikaa suraj kaa sonaa,
WHERE WAS THE GOLD FROM THE SUN SOLD?
jahaa.n laagaaye in kee bole
WHERE THESE ARE BID,
aisaa koee baazaar nahee.n,
THERE’S NO SUCH BAZAAR,
nange baazoo....
NAKED ARMS....
apnaa ek ek, ang dikhaa kar,
BY EXHIBITING EACH BODY-PART,
jeet lee tuuune husn kee baazee
YOU’VE WON THE BEAUTY CONTEST,
apnaa ek ek, ang dikhaa kar,
BY EXHIBITING EACH BODY-PART,
jeet lee tuuune husn kee baazee
YOU’VE WON THE BEAUTY CONTEST,
soch zaraa yeh, ThanDe dil se,
BUT JUST THINK OVER WITH A SOLACED HEART
jeet teree kyaa haar nahee.n
WHETHER THIS VICTORY ISN’T YOUR LOSS!
nange baazoo.n, nangee Taange.n,
NAKED ARMS, NAKED LEGS,
husn ka yeh mayyaar nahee.n,
THESE AREN’T THE ACME OF BEAUTY,
‘Uryaanee se, lutf uThaaoo.n,
THAT I SHOULD DERIVE PERVERT PLEASURE FROM NUDITY,
rooh meree bimaar nahee.n,
MY SPIRIT IS NOT SICK,
nange, baazoo....
NAKED ARMS...
