pardesi piya re ab mose na gujre rain
pardesi piya re ab mose na gujre rain
jiya bda bechain ab mose na gujre rain
jiya bda bechain ab mose na gujre rain

sardi gujar li garmi gujar li
bite naa sawan ki raat
sardi gujar li garmi gujar li
bite naa sawan ki raat
wo kaali kaali badli mohe chhed gayi
wo kaali kaali badli mohe chhed gayi
kaah se kahu dil ki baat
more barsan laage dono naian
more barsan laage dono naian
pardesi piya re ab mose na gujre rain

thandi hawa bhi hai barsaat ka maja bhi hai
thandi hawa bhi hai barsaat ka maja bhi hai
aur bijli bhi chamke hai kahi kahi
aur bijli bhi chamke hai kahi kahi
par mere dukh bhare dil se puche koi
par mere dukh bhare dil se puche koi
tu nahi to kuch bhi nahi
mere bas mein ho chura lu tora chain
mere bas mein ho chura lu tora chain
pardesi piya re ab mose na gujre rain

My love, a stranger, night won't pass with you,
My love, a stranger, night won't pass with you,
My heart, so restless, night won't pass with you,
My heart, so restless, night won't pass with you.

I've borne the cold, I've borne the heat,
But monsoon nights won't fade away,
I've borne the cold, I've borne the heat,
But monsoon nights won't fade away,
Those dark, dark clouds, they tease my soul,
Those dark, dark clouds, they tease my soul,
To whom can I my heart's plight say?
My eyes now rain a ceaseless pain,
My eyes now rain a ceaseless pain,
My love, a stranger, night won't pass with you.

Cool winds blow, the rain's sweet taste,
Cool winds blow, the rain's sweet taste,
And lightning flashes, here and there,
And lightning flashes, here and there,
But who will ask this aching heart,
But who will ask this aching heart,
Without you, nothing do I bear,
If I could, I'd steal your peace for gain,
If I could, I'd steal your peace for gain,
My love, a stranger, night won't pass with you.
