o badal ghir aaye
o badal ghir aaye
rimjhim pani barse, jiya mora tarse
jiya mora tarse
tum desh paraye, tum desh paraye
o badal ghir aaye
o badal ghir aaye

phir chhed gayi lo mast hawaye
ye mast hawaye
nanhi nanhi godaniya
birha agni ko aur badhaye
haye aur badhaye
is suni sejariyaa aa aa
dekh jiya ghabraye, tum desh paraye
o badal ghir aaye
o badal ghir aaye
rimjhim pani barse, jiya mora tarse
jiya mora tarse
tum desh paraye, tum desh paraye
o badal ghir aaye
o badal ghir aaye

preet ki bazi tose khel ke, dil haar gayi
ha dil haar gayi
birha ki peeda saiya haye
haye mohe
haye mohe mar gayi
ho mohe mar gayi
kaun ghadi nain to sang milaye
wo din hath na aaye, tum desh paraye
o badal ghir aaye
o badal ghir aaye
rimjhim pani barse, jiya mora tarse
jiya mora tarse
tum desh paraye, tum desh paraye
o badal ghir aaye
o badal ghir aaye

Clouds have gathered,
Clouds have gathered,
Drizzle falls, my heart yearns,
My heart yearns.
You are in a foreign land, you are in a foreign land.
Clouds have gathered,
Clouds have gathered.

Again, the playful breezes begin,
These playful breezes.
Tiny, swaying braids,
Fuel the fire of separation,
Alas, it grows.
In this silent garden, ah, ah,
Seeing, my heart trembles, you are in a foreign land.
Clouds have gathered,
Clouds have gathered,
Drizzle falls, my heart yearns,
My heart yearns.
You are in a foreign land, you are in a foreign land.
Clouds have gathered,
Clouds have gathered.

Playing the game of love with you, I lost my heart,
Yes, I lost my heart.
The pain of separation, oh beloved, alas,
Alas, me,
Alas, me, it has killed me.
Oh, it has killed me.
Which moment will bring our eyes together?
Those days will not return, you are in a foreign land.
Clouds have gathered,
Clouds have gathered,
Drizzle falls, my heart yearns,
My heart yearns.
You are in a foreign land, you are in a foreign land.
Clouds have gathered,
Clouds have gathered.
