aaya re aaya sawan
aaya re aaya sawan
ye baadal ghir ghir aaye ji lahraye
ye baadal ghir ghir aaye ji lahraye
mera manwa naache gaaye
mera manwa naache gaaye
aaye aaye baadal
ye baadal ghir ghir aaye ji lahraye
aaya re aaya sawan

jhum raha hai jivan mera
saaz mano ka kisne chheda
jhum raha hai jivan mera
saaz mano ka kisne chheda
phul bani hai dil ki kaliya
oye phul bani hai dil ki kaliya
aur nain mere muskaye
aaye aaye baadal
ye baadal ghir ghir aaye ji lahraye
aaya re aaya sawan

o dur gagan pe bikhra kajal
mehka hai dharti ka aanchal
dur gagan pe bikhra kajal
mehka hai dharti ka aanchal
o baaho me lahraye jhulungi
o baaho me lahraye jhulungi
ye geet suhane laye
aaye aaye baadal
ye baadal ghir ghir aaye ji lahraye
mera manwa naache gaaye
mera manwa naache gaaye
aaye aaye baadal
ye baadal ghir ghir aaye ji lahraye
aaya re aaya sawan

The monsoon arrives, it does,
The monsoon arrives.
Clouds gather, they come, they sway,
Clouds gather, they come, they sway.
My heart dances, sings its praise,
My heart dances, sings its praise.
The clouds arrive, they arrive.
Clouds gather, they come, they sway,
The monsoon arrives.

My life now sways with delight,
Whose fingers strum the soul's strings?
My life now sways with delight,
Whose fingers strum the soul's strings?
My heart's buds blossom to flowers,
Oh, my heart's buds blossom to flowers,
And my eyes now laugh with glee.
The clouds arrive, they arrive.
Clouds gather, they come, they sway,
The monsoon arrives.

Far in the sky, the kohl is spread,
The earth's veil now breathes of scent.
Far in the sky, the kohl is spread,
The earth's veil now breathes of scent.
I'll swing in the arms of the wind,
Oh, I'll swing in the arms of the wind,
Bringing the songs of joy.
The clouds arrive, they arrive.
Clouds gather, they come, they sway,
My heart dances, sings its praise,
My heart dances, sings its praise.
The clouds arrive, they arrive.
Clouds gather, they come, they sway,
The monsoon arrives.
