ghir ghir ke, ghir ghir ke aasmaan par chhaane lagi ghataaye
ghir ghir ke, ghir ghir ke aasmaan par chhaane lagi ghataaye
kah do koi piya se pardesava na jaaye
ghir ghir ke, ghir ghir ke aasmaan par chhaane lagi ghataaye
kah do koi piya se pardesava na jaaye

qaabu me dil nahi hai na hosh me javaani, na hosh me javaani
qaabu me dil nahi hai na hosh me javaani, na hosh me javaani
besudh bana rahi hai masti bhari havaaye
kah do koi piya se pardesava na jaaye
ghir ghir ke, ghir ghir ke aasmaan par chhaane lagi ghataaye
kah do koi piya se pardesava na jaaye

teri hasi to jakar phulo me chhup gayi thi, phulo me chhup gayi thi
teri hasi to jakar phulo me chhup gayi thi, phulo me chhup gayi thi
koyal ki kuk bankar gunji meri sadaaye
kah do koi piya se pardesava na jaaye
ghir ghir ke, ghir ghir ke aasmaan par chhaane lagi ghataaye
kah do koi piya se pardesava na jaaye

tu apni odhani me man baandh le piya ka, man baandh le piya ka
tu apni odhani me man baandh le piya ka, man baandh le piya ka
phir na unhe tu bhule na vo tumhe bhulaaye
kah do koi piya se pardesava na jaaye
ghir ghir ke, ghir ghir ke aasmaan par chhaane lagi ghataaye
kah do koi piya se pardesava na jaaye

Dark clouds, gathering, swirling, across the heavens they creep,
Dark clouds, gathering, swirling, across the heavens they creep,
Tell my love, my beloved, do not leave, do not seek sleep.
Dark clouds, gathering, swirling, across the heavens they creep,
Tell my love, my beloved, do not leave, do not seek sleep.

My heart unbound, my youth adrift, no reason can I keep,
My heart unbound, my youth adrift, no reason can I keep,
These heady winds, they steal my sense, and secrets deeply steep.
Tell my love, my beloved, do not leave, do not seek sleep.
Dark clouds, gathering, swirling, across the heavens they creep,
Tell my love, my beloved, do not leave, do not seek sleep.

Your laughter, hidden, in the blossoms it did leap,
Your laughter, hidden, in the blossoms it did leap,
As the cuckoo's call, my longing, my echoes deep.
Tell my love, my beloved, do not leave, do not seek sleep.
Dark clouds, gathering, swirling, across the heavens they creep,
Tell my love, my beloved, do not leave, do not seek sleep.

Bind your heart to his, within your veil to keep,
Bind your heart to his, within your veil to keep,
Then he'll not forget, nor will you weep, nor ever sleep.
Tell my love, my beloved, do not leave, do not seek sleep.
Dark clouds, gathering, swirling, across the heavens they creep,
Tell my love, my beloved, do not leave, do not seek sleep.
