aa pardesi balma more angana
aa pardesi balma more angana
dekh maine pahne naye naye kangana
o naye naye kangana
aa pardesi balma more angana

ro roke har gayi mai tere intzar me
ro roke har gayi mai tere intzar me
apna bana ja balam aake bahar
aa pardesi balma more angana
dekh maine pahne naye naye kangana
naye naye kangana
aa pardesi balma more angana

din maine milne ki aash me gujare
din maine milne ki aash me gujare
rato ko kai kai bar gine tare
aa pardesi balma more angana
dekh maine pahne naye naye kangana
naye naye kangana
aa pardesi balma more angana

Come, my love, stranger to my courtyard,
Come, my love, stranger to my courtyard,
See the new bangles I have donned,
Oh, the brand new bangles,
Come, my love, stranger to my courtyard.

Weeping, I am defeated, in your waiting,
Weeping, I am defeated, in your waiting,
Come, beloved, and make me your own,
Come, my love, stranger to my courtyard,
See the new bangles I have donned,
Oh, the brand new bangles,
Come, my love, stranger to my courtyard.

Days I spent, in hope of union,
Days I spent, in hope of union,
Nights I have counted the stars many a time,
Come, my love, stranger to my courtyard,
See the new bangles I have donned,
Oh, the brand new bangles,
Come, my love, stranger to my courtyard.
