ghir-ghir ban me ghor ghata chhaayi o mohe yaad teri aayi
ghir-ghir ban me ghor ghata chhaayi o mohe yaad teri aayi
ghir-ghir ghir-ghir gire jharoke
ghir-ghir ghir-ghir gire jharoke aur kaun milne ke mauqe
o barkha dulhan ban ke aayi
ghir-ghir ban me ghor ghata chhaayi o mohe yaad teri aayi

saavan aaya piya lo ji tum bhi to ghar aao na
aj more angana me aao aao aa ke jaao na
aj more angana me aao aao aa ke jaao na
kalap kalap haari aur mohe kalpaao na o mohe yaad teri aayi
ghir-ghir ban me ghor ghata chhaayi o mohe yaad teri aai

khidki khol khidi nainan ki kuchh sun ja kuchh kah ja re man ki
khidki khol khidi nainan ki kuchh sun ja kuchh kah ja re man ki
o maine kaisi aag lagaayi
ghir-ghir ban me ghor ghata chhaayi o mohe yaad teri aayi
ghir-ghir ban me ghor ghata chhaayi

Shadows gather, the forest weeps, and a storm descends,
Oh, my love, your memory transcends.
Shadows gather, the forest weeps, and a storm descends,
Oh, my love, your memory transcends.
Down, down, down the balconies fall,
Down, down, down, at fate's cruel call,
Where, oh where, the chance to meet?
The rain, a bride, with watery feet,
Shadows gather, the forest weeps, and a storm descends,
Oh, my love, your memory transcends.

The monsoon arrives, beloved, come home, I pray,
Come to my courtyard, oh come, oh come, and stay.
Come to my courtyard, oh come, oh come, and stay.
Pleading, I'm weary, do not delay, Oh, my love, your memory transcends.
Shadows gather, the forest weeps, and a storm descends,
Oh, my love, your memory transcends.

Open the window of my eyes, hear me,
Listen to my heart, to what it can be.
Open the window of my eyes, hear me,
Listen to my heart, to what it can be.
Oh, what fire have I ignited?
Shadows gather, the forest weeps, and a storm descends,
Oh, my love, your memory transcends.
Shadows gather, the forest weeps, and a storm descends.
