sawan ka mahina aa gaya ho
sawan ka mahina aa gaya ho
sawan ka mahina aa gaya
ho jina nahi aata tha jin logo ko
ho un logo ko jina aa gaya ho
sawan ka mahina aa gaya
ho pina nahi aata tha jin logo ko
un logo ko pina aa gaya
haye sawan ka mahina aa gaya

kitne baras tarse abke baras barse
kitne baras tarse abke baras barse
ambar pe badal dharti pe premi pagal
chahkar kitne baras tarse
o rab jane kya baat hui kaisi ye barsat hui
tune angdai jo li to kaliyo ko
kaliyo ko pasina aa gaya hai
haye sawan ka mahina aa gaya

pani nahi barsa haye barsi hai aag piya
pani nahi barsa haye barsi hai aag piya
kahte hai sab ke bairan barkha me
abke pani nahi barsa
ho aag to phir bhuj jati hai
pyas bahut tadpati hai
kahe tum pyase maujo me is dil ka
is dil ka sapera aa gaya ho
sawan ka mahina aa gaya
jina nahi aata tha jin logo ko
un logo ko jina aa gaya
ho sawan ka mahina aa gaya
sawan ka mahina aa gaya hai
sawan ka mahina aa gaya

The monsoon has arrived,
The monsoon has arrived,
The monsoon has come.
Those who knew not how to live,
Now find life's embrace.
The monsoon has arrived.
Those who knew not how to drink,
Now understand the thirst,
Alas, the monsoon has arrived.

Years of longing, this year it pours,
Years of longing, this year it pours.
Clouds in the heavens, lovers on earth, gone mad.
For years, we have yearned.
Oh, God knows what has happened, what rain has fallen,
As you stretched, the buds, the buds,
they began to sweat.
Alas, the monsoon has arrived.

No water fell, alas, but fire, beloved,
No water fell, alas, but fire, beloved.
They say, the rain is cruel this time,
No water fell.
Fire can be extinguished,
But thirst, it torments.
Why, oh why, in these waves of thirst, did
The heart's snake charmer come?
The monsoon has arrived.
Those who knew not how to live,
Now find life's embrace.
The monsoon has arrived.
The monsoon has arrived.
The monsoon has arrived.
