kale kale aaye badarva
aavo sajan more aavo
kale kale aaye badarva
aavo sajan more aavo

jab sawan ki rut aaye sajanwa
jiya pe laage more thesh
aise me tum more sajanwa
kaahe gaye pardesh
jab sawan ki rut aaye sajanwa

aise me tum more sajanwa
kaahe gaye pardesh
ho kale kale aaye badarva
aavo sajan more aavo
kale kale aaye badarva
aavo sajan more aavo

jab panghat pe sakhiyan ke sang main
paniya bharan ko jau
chhalak pade nainan ki gagri
ro ro neer bahau

kate to phir ugi aaye
gayi jawani bit to sajna
nahi laut ke aaye

Dark, dark clouds have gathered,
Come, my love, oh come.
Dark, dark clouds have gathered,
Come, my love, oh come.

When the monsoon season arrives, love,
A wound opens in my heart.
In such a time, my love,
Why have you gone away?

A wound opens in my heart.
In such a time, my love,
Why have you gone away?
Oh, dark, dark clouds have gathered,
Come, my love, oh come.
Dark, dark clouds have gathered,
Come, my love, oh come.

When with friends I go to the well,
To fetch water,
My eyes overflow like a pot,
And I weep, shedding tears.

These green, green fields, my love,
When cut, they grow again.
But youth, once gone, my love,
Never comes back again.
