I'm a girl as pure as the moon my lord
Why'd you bring a mistress--
I'm your necklace of pearls my lord, why'd you bring a mistress
I'm a girl as pure as the moon my lord, why'd you bring a mistress
I'm your necklace of pearls my lord, why'd you bring a mistress
Mallika-E-Ghazal Begum Mirza
I mashed millet and spread them on the roof
O’ my beloved mother, I spread them on the roof
Crows will come and eat it all We will have to do it all over again
We will have to do it all over again
Oh, he fights in the day and in the night too
O’ my beloved mother, he fights with me all day long
O’ my beloved mother, why does he keep fighting?
Crows will come and eat it all Don’t pluck the flower else it'll wilt
You are my stud and I'm your doe
Oh-ho, I'm your doe
You are my stud and I'm your doe
Oh-ho, I'm your doe
You are my stud...
Long live!
Why does the moon set on a full-moon night
Even as I drown... Oh, even as I drown
Why do I burn
Why does the moon set on a full-moon night
Long live...
The revolution!
I fought for love, and now I've lost it
My beating heart lies slain
As I wring my hands in agony
Was anyone ever wrought thus
Oh, even as I drown
Oh... Oh, even as I drown
Why do I burn
Why does the moon set on a full-moon night
