The heart's beloved monsoon arrives, paints the world anew,
The heart's beloved monsoon arrives, paints the world anew,

Why does each bud now smile, why does the eastern breeze now blow?
Why does each bud now smile, why does the eastern breeze now blow?
Is this the world entire, is this all there is?
A fresh hue it brings,
A fresh hue it brings, a fresh hue.
The heart's beloved monsoon arrives, paints the world anew,
The heart's beloved monsoon arrives, paints the world anew.

My cuckoo, my sweet friend, sing no more your lonely song,

My tender, sweet lips have,
My tender, sweet lips have
A new song found,
A new song found, a new song.
The heart's beloved monsoon arrives, paints the world anew,
The heart's beloved monsoon arrives, paints the world anew.

My city of eyes overflows,
My city of eyes overflows, though the pitchers may not fill.
My city of eyes overflows, though the pitchers may not fill.
In my verdant garden,
In my verdant garden,
A new bloom has come,
A new bloom has come, a new bloom.
The heart's beloved monsoon arrives, paints the world anew,
The heart's beloved monsoon arrives, paints the world anew.
