ja re kare badra balam ke paas
ja re kare badra balam ke paas
wo hai aise budhu na samjhe re pyar
ja re kare badra balam ke pas
wo hai aise budhu na samjhe re pyar
vahi ja ke ro
ja re kare badra balam ke pas
wo hai aise budhu na samjhe re pyar

kinki palak se palak mori uljhi
kinki palak se palak mori uljhi
nipat anadi se lat mori uljhi
ke lat uljha ke mai to gayi haar
wo aise budhu na samjhe re pyar
vahi ja ke ro
ja re kare badra balam ke pas
wo hai aise budhu na samjhe re pyar

ang unhi ki lahriya samai
ang unhi ki lahriya samai
kabhu na puche lu kahe angdayi
ke sou sou bal khake mai to gayi haar
wo hai aise budhu na samjhe re pyar

tham lo baiya chunar samjhawe
tham lo baiya chunar samjhawe
garwa laga lo kajar samjhaye
ke sab samjhke mai to gayi har
wo hai aise budhu na samjhe re pyar
vahi ja ke ro
ja re kare badra balam ke pas
wo hai aise budhu na samjhe re pyar
wo hai aise budhu na samjhe re pyar

Go, dark cloud, to my love's abode,
Go, dark cloud, to my love's abode,
He, so foolish, cannot fathom love's code.
Go, dark cloud, to my love's door,
He, so foolish, cannot fathom love's lore.
Weep there, and pour.
Go, dark cloud, to my love's door,
He, so foolish, cannot fathom love's score.

Whose lashes tangled with my own,
Whose lashes tangled, I have known?
With that simpleton, my tresses overthrown,
Tangled and lost, I’ve been, alone.
He, so foolish, cannot fathom love's tone.
Weep there, and moan.
Go, dark cloud, to my love's abode,
He, so foolish, cannot fathom love's road.

His form, a wave within my frame,
His form, a wave, yet he asks no name,
Why do I sigh, why does the ember flame?
A hundred curves, and lost the game.
He, so foolish, cannot grasp love's claim.

Hold my arm, my scarf implores,
Hold my arm, my kohl now pours,
Embrace me, love, and shut the doors,
Explaining all, but still he ignores.
He, so foolish, cannot fathom love's shores.
Weep there, and soar.
Go, dark cloud, to my love's abode,
He, so foolish, cannot fathom love's code.
He, so foolish, cannot fathom love's ode.
