ye mausam hai rang biranga
ye mausam hai rang biranga
karungi jamke danga
aaj nahi chhodungi tujhko
lungi pyar ka panga
ye mausam hai rang biranga
karungi jamke danga
aaj nahi chhodungi tujhko
lungi pyar ka panga, ha

are hum kashi ka akbar hu, ka
are hum kashi ka akbar hu
bahti hai jaha pe ganga
khaat khadi kar du uski
jo lega humse panga

The season bursts, a riot of hue,
The season bursts, a riot anew.
I'll stir the dust, a joyous war,
Tonight I'll claim you, and nothing more.
I'll take the plunge, in love's sweet fray,
The season bursts, come what may.
I'll stir the dust, a joyous war,
Tonight I'll claim you, and nothing more, yes.

Oh, I am the Akbar of Kashi's hold,
Oh, I am the Akbar, brave and bold.
Where the Ganga flows, a sacred stream,
I'll break the frame of any dream,
Of those who dare to cross my way.
