barkha rut bhi aaj ajab mastani hai
barkha rut bhi aaj ajab mastani hai
kho nahi jana kho nahi jana raat
badi tufani hai
barkha rut bhi aaj ajab mastani hai
kho nahi jana raat badi tufani hai
barkha rut bhi aaj ajab mastani hai

dono taraf vahi dil ki lagi hai
tu bhi kahe kya mai bhi kahu kya
tu bhi kahe kya mai bhi kahu kya
shole ki ik diwar khadi hai
tum bhi karo kya mai bhi karu kya
tum bhi karo kya mai bhi karu kya
ander aag lagi hai bahar pani hai
kho nahi jana raat badi tufani hai
barkha rut bhi aaj ajab mastani hai

bahar jo tufa vahi ab
sine ke andar lagta hai
bahar jo tufa vahi ab
sine ke andar lagta hai
tan se lipat rhi laaj ki chunri
kya kahu kaisa dar lagta hai dar lagta hai
janam janam ki pyaas to aaj bujhani hai
kho nahi jana raat badi tufani hai
barkha rut bhi aaj ajab mastani hai
kho nahi jana kho nahi jana raat
badi tufani hai

The monsoon, today, a mistress of delight,
The monsoon, today, a mistress of delight,
Do not be lost, do not be lost, this night,
The tempest rages with all its might.
The monsoon, today, a mistress of delight.

On both sides, the heart's own burning fire,
What do you say, and what do I desire?
What do you say, and what do I desire?
A wall of flames, reaching ever higher,
What do you do, and what do I acquire?
What do you do, and what do I acquire?
Within, the blaze; without, the water's pyre,
Do not be lost, this night, a tempest's ire.
The monsoon, today, a mistress of delight.

The storm outside, now, within me resides,
The storm outside, now, within me resides,
Shame's veil clings, where the spirit confides,
What can I say, what fear now presides?
This thirst of ages, it must now be satisfied,
Do not be lost, this night, a tempest's stride.
The monsoon, today, a mistress of delight,
Do not be lost, do not be lost, this night,
The tempest rages with all its might.
