o barkha mujhe sach sach bata
o barkha mujhe sach sach bata
ye chithi kiski hain
ek baka naujawan mujhpe deta hain jaan
ye chiti uski hain
diwane ye chiti uski hain
o barkha mujhe sach sach bata

tu bura na mane to
khol ke dekh lu ye chithi
jane do jane do, do dilo ke
bich me koi tisra aaye kyu
are are apne premi ko pahchan
kaahe bane hain nadan
ye chithi kiski hain
likhi kisi premi dil ki hain
o barkha mujhe sach sach bata

jo mera bas chale to
mai phad ke faik du ye chithi
bawre bawre kahe tujhko jalan hain
main dil kisi ko bhi du
dekho dekho bura nahi main insan
mujhe apna hi jan
ye chithi kiski hain
likhi kisi premi dil ki hain
o barkha mujhe sach sach bata

aisa kya tune dekha
jo kar liya dil nisar o pagli
kya kahu kya kahu ek ho to batau
usme gun hain hazar
suno suno uska nam hain sultan
uske kam hain mahan
ye chithi uski hain
samjh le chithi apni hain
o diwane ye chithi uski hain
o samjh le chithi apni hain

Oh, rain, tell me truly,
Oh, rain, tell me truly,
Whose letter is this?
A handsome youth, he pours his life for me,
This letter, it is his.
Mad one, this letter, it is his,
Oh, rain, tell me truly.

If you don't mind,
Shall I open and read this letter?
Let it be, let it be, between two hearts,
Why should a third come between?
Hey, hey, recognize your own lover,
Why do you play the naive one?
Whose letter is this?
Written by a loving heart, it is,
Oh, rain, tell me truly.

If I had my way,
I would tear this letter to shreds.
Mad one, mad one, why this jealousy?
I can give my heart to anyone.
Look, look, I am not a bad person,
Consider me your own.
Whose letter is this?
Written by a loving heart, it is,
Oh, rain, tell me truly.

What did you see,
That you gave your heart to him, oh, mad girl?
What to say, what to say, if there was one thing, I would tell you,
He possesses a thousand virtues.
Listen, listen, his name is Sultan,
His deeds, they are great.
This letter, it is his,
Understand, the letter is your own.
Mad one, this letter, it is his,
Oh, understand, the letter is your own.
