rain bhayi so ja re panchi bhor bhaye ud jana hai
aaj to so le chup ke nindiya kal kahi or thikana hai
rain bhayi so ja re panchi bhor bhaye ud jana hai
rain bhayi so ja re panchi

ye basant ye sundar kaliya ye basant ye sundar kaliya
rang birangi ye rang raliya rang birangi ye rang raliya
apna man bha lane ko ye sapna bada suhana hai
rain bhayi so ja re panchi rain bhayi so ja re panchi

samjh are jiwan ki bhasha samjh are jiwan ki bhasha
asha me bhi ji nirasha asha me bhi ji nirasha
jiwan bhar ka rona hai or pal bhar ka muskana hai
rain bhayi so ja re panchi rain bhayi so ja re panchi

is nagari ki rit hai jhuthi man bhi jhutha or prit hai tuti
is nagari ki rit hai jhuthi man bhi jhutha or prit hai tuti
laut ke panchi laut ke panchi is nagari me
tujhko kabhi na aana hai tujhko kabhi na aana hai

Night descends, now sleep, O bird, for dawn will call your flight,
Tonight, find solace in slumber's embrace, tomorrow, a different light.
Night descends, now sleep, O bird, for dawn will call your flight,
Night descends, now sleep, O bird.

These springs, these blooms in their glory, these springs, these blooms in their glory,
A kaleidoscope of colours, a play of joy, a kaleidoscope of colours, a play of joy,
To captivate your heart, this dream so sweet,
Night descends, now sleep, O bird, night descends, now sleep, O bird.

Understand the language of life, understand the language of life,
Despair woven in hope's thread, despair woven in hope's thread,
A lifetime of weeping, a moment of smile,
Night descends, now sleep, O bird, night descends, now sleep, O bird.

This city's ways, a lie untold, the heart deceitful, love betrayed,
This city's ways, a lie untold, the heart deceitful, love betrayed,
Return, O bird, return, O bird,
Nevermore must you return, nevermore must you return.
