piya aavan kah gaye na aaye
man nahi dharta dheer
aaye to ka aaye piya
jab jar jar mara sharir

na ho udaas aayenge pass
dekho to aayo sandeshwa
na ho udaas aayenge pass
dekho to aayo sandeshwa
bhaati agni me tap kar
prem ki madira tez huyi
aata hu tere dar par
ek jaam peela de na saaki

pardesiya mora ha ha re
lashkariya dhola ha ha re
chunariya dola
aap main chahu ji thari baat ji

aao bal bal jaye dal bal
kaahe manwa re jaye kaamwa se

mohaniya pyari ha ha ji
bahaniya pyari ha ha ji
sajaniya pyari
hilmil ke khushiya sab manao ji

dhol maanu laye ki saugat o dhola
bhaiya maanu laye ki saugat bhaiya
main jo aaya hu thare pass ji

vastr bhushan tan dhake
naate na sang nibhaye
prem amar nahi nas sakhi
janam janam sang jaye
mohaniya pyari
ha ha ji bahaniya pyari
ha ha ji sajaniya pyari
laayo thano prem ki saugat ji

My love promised to come, yet did not appear,
My heart finds no solace, consumed by fear.
What worth his arrival, when the body's thread,
Is frayed and withered, a spirit nearly dead?

Do not despair, he will be near,
Behold, a message comes clear.
Do not despair, he will be near,
Behold, a message comes clear.
Forged in the fire of devotion,
Love's elixir grows strong.
I come to your door, a potion,
O Saqi, pour one last song.

My wanderer, oh my love, yes, yes,
My soldier, my beloved, yes, yes.
My crimson veil, a dance of bliss,
I yearn for you, to kiss your grace.

Come, let my strength be thine,
Why does my heart shun divine?

My beloved, oh my love, yes, yes,
My sister, oh my love, yes, yes,
My friend, oh my love,
Let us rejoice, and joyful be.

My love brings gifts of joy, oh love,
My brother brings gifts of joy, oh brother,
I have come to you, my dove.

Clothes and jewels shroud the form,
Bonds of kin offer no comfort,
Love immortal, a life's long storm,
Across births, together, to comfort.
My beloved, oh my love, yes, yes,
My sister, oh my love, yes, yes,
My friend, oh my love,
Brings you the gift of love, I give.
