ho koyal kuke huk uthaye
yaado ki banduk chalaye
koyal kuke huk uthaye
yaado ki banduk chalaye
baago me jhulo ke mausam
vapas aaye re
ghar aaja pardesi tera
des bulaye re
ghar aaja pardesi tera
des bulaye re

ho baago me jhulo ke mausam
vapas aaye re
ghar aaja pardesi tera
des bulaye re
ghar aaja pardesi tera
des bulaye re

is gaav ki anpadh mitti
padh nahi sakti teri chiththi
ye mitti tu aakar chume
to is dharati ka dil jhume
mana tere hai kuchh sapne
par ham to hai tere apne
bhulne wale hamko teri
yaad sataye re
ghar aaja pardesi tera
des bulaye re
ghar aaja pardesi tera
des bulaye re

panghat pe aayi mutiya re
chham chham payal ki jhankare
kheto me lehrai sarso
kal parso me bite barso
aaj hi aaja gata hasta
tera rasta dekhe rasta
are jhuk jhuk gadi ki siti
aawaj lagaye re
ghar aaja pardesi tera
des bulaye re
ghar aaja pardesi tera
des bulaye re

hatho me puja ki thali
aayi raat suhagowali
o chand ko dekhu
hath main jodu
karvachauth ka vrat me todu
tere hath se pikar pani
dasi se ban jau rani
aaj ki raat jo mange koi
wo pa jaye re
ghar aaja pardesi tera
des bulaye re
ghar aaja pardesi tera
des bulaye re

o mann mitra, o mann mita
de tainu rab de hawale kita

duniya ke dastur hai kaise
pagal dil majbur hai kaise
ab kya sunana ab kya kehna
tere mere bich hi rehna
khatm hui ye aankh micholi
kal jayegi meri doli
meri doli meri arthi
na ban jaye re
ghar aaja pardesi tera
des bulaye re
ghar aaja pardesi tera
des bulaye re

koyal kuke huk uthaye
yaado ki banduk chalaye
baago me jhulo ke mausam
vapas aaye re

o mahi re o chan ve
be jindva o sajna


lyrics typed by :- ruchita parab.

The cuckoo cries, a haunting plea,
Memories fire, a volley free.
Swinging seasons in the gardens bright,
Return and bloom, with all their light.
Come home, stranger, your land calls you,
Come home, stranger, your land calls true.

The village earth, unschooled and deep,
Cannot read the words you keep.
Kiss this soil, and feel its heart,
This land will leap, a brand new start.
Dreams you hold, a distant gleam,
But we are yours, a living dream.
Forgetful heart, your memory's sting,
Calls you home, the bells all ring.
Come home, stranger, your land calls you,
Come home, stranger, your land calls true.

At the well, the women gather near,
Anklets chime, banish every fear.
Mustard fields, in golden sway,
Yesterday, the passing day.
Come today, with laughter's grace,
Your path awaits, in this dear place.
The train's whistle, a mournful sound,
Calls you home, the world around.
Come home, stranger, your land calls you,
Come home, stranger, your land calls true.

In hands, the offering's gentle hold,
A night of blessing, stories told.
Moon above, a silent gleam,
I clasp my hands, fulfilling dream.
Karva Chauth's fast, I now release,
From your hand, my thirst will cease.
A handmaid then, a queen to be,
Tonight, all wishes, find their key.
Come home, stranger, your land calls you,
Come home, stranger, your land calls true.

Oh, friend of my soul, my heart's own guide,
To God's hand, your spirit I confide.
The world's ways, a twisted game,
A captive heart, consumed by flame.
No more to hear, no more to say,
Between us, secrets come to stay.
This game of hide-and-seek now done,
Tomorrow, my palanquin will run.
May my palanquin not turn to pyre,
Come home, stranger, before I expire.
Come home, stranger, your land calls you.

The cuckoo cries, a haunting plea,
Memories fire, a volley free.
Swinging seasons in the gardens bright,
Return and bloom, with all their light.
Oh, beloved, oh moon of my night,
My life, my love, my guiding light.
