pardeshi re jate jate jiya mora liye ja
jate jate jiya mora liye ja
ja re pardeshi re
pardeshi re jate jate jiya mora liye ja
jate jate jiya mora liye ja

dil par gam ki ghata jab chaye
ji bhar aaye
geet umad hotho par aaye
neend na aaye
neend liye ja
neend liye ja yaad diye ja
ja re pardeshi re
pardeshi re jate jate jiya mora liye ja
jate jate jiya mora liye ja
ja re pardeshi re

karke ishara pyara pyara diya sahara
ban kar ke prano se pyara kiya kinara
ja ke aane ka
ja ke aane ka vada kiye ja
ja re pardeshi re
pardeshi re jate jate jiya mora liye ja
jate jate jiya mora liye ja
ja re pardeshi re

Stranger, oh Stranger,
leaving, you steal my soul away,
as you depart, my soul you take.
Go now, Stranger, go.
Stranger, oh Stranger,
leaving, you steal my soul away,
as you depart, my soul you take.
Go now, Stranger, go.

When sorrow's cloud descends on the heart,
tears start to flow.
Songs well up, reaching my lips,
and sleep deserts me.
Take my sleep,
take my sleep, leave memories instead.
Go now, Stranger, go.
Stranger, oh Stranger,
leaving, you steal my soul away,
as you depart, my soul you take.
Go now, Stranger, go.

With sweet gestures, you offered solace,
becoming dearer than life itself, you held me close.
Promise to return,
promise to return,
make that vow.
Go now, Stranger, go.
Stranger, oh Stranger,
leaving, you steal my soul away,
as you depart, my soul you take.
Go now, Stranger, oh Stranger.
