barso re barso re barso ram dhadake se
o budiya mar gayi fake se barso ram dhadake se
o budiya mar gayi fake se budiya mar gai fake se
barso ram dhadake se o budiya mar gayi fake se
budiya mar gai fake se barso ram dhadake se

kal jug me bhi marti hai satjug me bhi marti thi
barso ram dhadake se o budiya mar gayi fake se
ye budiya sada hi fake karti thi
jina isko ras na tha paisa iska pas ne tha
iske ghar ko dekh ke lakshmi mud jati thi nake se
mud jati thi nake se barso ram dhadake se
o budiya mar gayi fake se budiya mar gai fake se
barso ram dhadake se

juthe tukde khakar budiya tapta pani piti hai
barso ram dhadake se o budiya mar gayi fake se
marti hai to mar jane do pahle bhi kab jiti thi
jai ho paise walo ki gehu ke dalalo ki
had se bada munafa yaro ki
kuch bhi kam hai take se

barso ram dhadake se o budiya mar gayi fake se
budiya mar gai fake se barso ram dhadake se
o budiya mar gayi fake se budiya mar gai fake se
barso ram dhadake se

Rains, pour down, roar with thunder,
Old woman perished, hunger's plunder.
Oh, she starved, her spirit undone,
Rains, pour down, 'til the old world's run.
She starved, she starved, her life withdrawn,
Rains, pour down, until the new dawn.

In Kali Yuga, she met her end,
As in Satya, the heavens descend.
Oh, she starved, a life of dearth,
She starved, her time on earth.
This old one, ever fasting, frail,
Life's bitter cup, her endless trail.
No joy she knew, no wealth to hold,
Laxmi turned away, her story told.
Turned away, her face concealed,
Rains, pour down, the truth revealed.
Oh, she starved, a weary soul,
Rains, pour down, to make her whole.

Scraps she scavenged, water tepid,
Rains, pour down, where life was trepid.
Oh, she starved, her final breath,
Let her go, embrace her death.
For when did she truly live?
Hail the rich, the wheat purvey,
Profits swollen, beyond all measure,
A daylight robbery's dark pleasure.

Rains, pour down, with crashing sound,
Oh, she starved, on hallowed ground.
She starved, her spirit freed,
Rains, pour down, a planted seed.
Oh, she starved, her time complete,
Rains, pour down, bittersweet.
