ghir ghir aaye badal kare ghir ghir aaye badal kare
more balamwa aa re o more balamwa aa re
ghir ghir aaye badal kaare
more balamwa aa re o more balamwa aa re
kaali kaali badli daraye mohe
tore bin haay re ka karu bataye jaa
kaali kaali badli daraye mohe

tore bin haay re ka karu bataye ja
ya tum hi aao re gaao
ye aake badariya hataye jaa ya tum hi aao re gaao
ye aake badariya hataye jaa tum bin dukhi jiyara
tum bin dukhi jiyara yahi pukaare more balamwa aare
o more baalamwa aare ghir ghir aaye baadal kaare
more baalamwa aa re o more baalamwa aa re

ambuwa pe papeeha piya piya bole
o more saajan aajaa aaja jiya mera dole
ambuwa pe papeeha piya piya bole
o more saajan aajaa
aaja jiya mera dole ab hamse na guzre
ye din pyare more balamwa aa re
o more balamwa aa re ghir ghir aaye badal kare
more balamwa aa re o more balamwa aa re

The dark clouds gather, circling low,
My beloved, return, oh, my beloved, come home.
The dark clouds gather, circling low,
My beloved, return, oh, my beloved, come home.

These shadows frighten, black as night,
Without you, alas, what can I do, tell me?
These shadows frighten, black as night,
Without you, alas, what can I do, tell me?

Either you must come, and sing your song,
And push these storm clouds far away.
Either you must come, and sing your song,
And push these storm clouds far away.
Without you, my heart is heavy with grief,
Without you, my heart calls out to you, my beloved, return.
Oh, my beloved, return,
The dark clouds gather, circling low,
My beloved, return, oh, my beloved, come home.

On the mango tree, the cuckoo cries, "Pia, Pia,"
Oh, my love, come, come, my heart does tremble.
On the mango tree, the cuckoo cries, "Pia, Pia,"
Oh, my love, come, come, my heart does tremble.
Now I can no longer bear these days, my love,
Oh, my beloved, return,
Oh, my beloved, return,
The dark clouds gather, circling low,
My beloved, return, oh, my beloved, come home.
