Koi dil mein liye armaan chala jaata hai
Koi khoye huay ausaar chala jaata hai
Husn walon se yeh keh do ke na niklein bahir
Dekhne walon ka eimaan chala jaata hai
Mast nazron se Allah bachaye
Mahjamalon se Allah bachaye
Mast nazron se Allah bachaye Mahjamalon se Allah bachaye
Har bala sar pe aa jaye lekin
Husn walon se Allah bachaye
Inki maasoomiyat par na jaana
Inke dhoke mein har giz na aana
Loot lete hain yeh muskura kar
In ki chalon se Allah bachaye
Inki maasoomiyat par na jaana
Inke dhoke mein har giz na aana
Loot lete hain yeh muskura kar
Inki chalon se Allah bachaye
Loot lete hain yeh muskura kar
Inki chalon se Allah bachaye
Loot lete hain ye, loot lete hain
Ye loot lete hain, ye loot lete hain
Ye loot lete hain, ye loot lete hain
Jalakrukhi dikha kar, muskura kar loot lete hain
Nigao se nigao ko mila kar loot lete hain
Ye atchi pardadaadi hain, ye atchi dilnawazi hain
Hasa kar loot lete hain, rula kar loot lete hain
Ye loot lete hain, ye loot lete hain
Ye loot lete hain, ye loot lete hain
Husn waale wafa nahi karte
Ishq waale dagha nahi karte
Zulm karna to inki aadat hain
Ye kisi ka bhala nahi karte
Ye loot lete hain, ye loot lete hain
Ye loot lete hain, ye loot lete hain
Amir is raaste se jo guzrte hain woh kehte hain
Muhalla hain haseeno ka, ke ki basti hain
Ye loot lete hain, ye loot lete hain
Loot lete hain yeh muskura kar
Inki chalon se Allah bachaye
Inki fitrat mein hain be-wafaai
Jaanti hain ye saari khudaaee
Atche-atcho ko dete hain dhoka
Bhole-bhalo se Allah bachaye
Atche-atcho ko dete hain dhoka
Bhole-bhalo se Allah bachaye
Mast nazron se Allah bachaye
Mahjamalon se Allah bachaye

Overall Meaning:
The lyrics to Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan & Party's song "Mast Nazroon Se Allah Bachhae" describe the dangers of being seduced by attractive but deceitful people. The song starts by talking about how some people can take what you hold dear from your heart, and some can deceive you when you are feeling lost. The following lines urge those who are attractive not to reveal themselves to the world so that they do not harm people's faith. The chorus, "Mast nazron se Allah bachaye" and "Mahjamalon se Allah bachaye" translates to "Protect us, Allah, from entrancing gazes" and "Protect us, Allah, from the cunning ones".
The song then goes on to describe how attractive people can lead others astray by using their innocent looks to steal from them. The song urges people to be cautious of these innocent-looking people as they are masterful at deception. The lyrics suggest that they can steal while smiling and making people laugh, and that they are skilled at confusing the minds of their victims. The second chorus repeats the plea, "Mast nazron se Allah bachaye" and "Mahjamalon se Allah bachaye", urging Allah to protect us from these people.
