ae bas ruth gaye ruthe ho sanam to phir kya hai
ruthe ho sanam to phir kya hai
humko bhi manana aata hai humko bhi manana aata hai
ruthe ho sanam to phir kya hai

barkha ke saloni baho ko jab dalenge hum tere gale
ek pal me aji mit jayenge sab pyar ke sare shikve gile
sab pyar ke sare shikve gile
ruthe ho sanam to phir kya hai humko bhi manana aata hai

shano pe tere jab lat meri maslegi aur lahrayegi
gusse ki jagha phir chehre pe halki si hansi aa jayegi
halki si hansi aa jayegi ruthe ho sanam to phir kya hai
humko bhi manana aata hai

aakhir me manane ki tumko aati hai hume ye khas saza
sharmake zara ha kah de more raja ji humse ho kahe khafa
more saiya ji humse ho kahe khafa
ruthe ho sanam to phir kya hai ruthe ho sanam to phir kya hai
humko bhi manana aata hai humko bhi manana aata hai
ruthe ho sanam to phir kya hai ruthe ho sanam to phir kya hai

If you are angered, my love, what then?
If you are angered, what then?
We, too, know how to coax, we, too, know how to coax.
If you are angered, what then?

When the embrace of the monsoon I cast around your neck,
In a moment, alas, all the grievances of love will dissolve,
All the grievances of love will dissolve.
If you are angered, what then? We, too, know how to coax.

When my tresses caress and dance upon your shoulders,
In place of anger, a gentle smile will bloom upon your face,
A gentle smile will bloom upon your face. If you are angered, what then?
We, too, know how to coax.

In the end, this is the special punishment you give us for appeasement,
Blushing slightly, say yes, my king, why are you vexed with us?
My beloved, why are you vexed with us?
If you are angered, what then? If you are angered, what then?
We, too, know how to coax, we, too, know how to coax.
If you are angered, what then? If you are angered, what then?
