baarish ke baad ke gili mitti ki khushboo tumhari khushboo
baarish ke baad ke gili mitti ki khushboo
tumhari khushboo tumhari khushboo tumhari khushboo
faadi me bheege bheege kohre ki khushboo
tumhari khushboo tumhari khushboo tumhari khushboo

saanso pe saanso pe naam likh do
likh do ansuna sa anjana ilja likh do likh do
baaho ka aaghosh udti udti pyas, ye pyas na bujhne do
haatho me thandi thandi mehandi ki khushboo
tumhari khushboo tumhari khushboo tumhari khushboo

ha ruyi sa halka hai ye tan saara, saara
nas nas me mehki hai thandi jwala, jwala
aankho pe rakhdo hatheliyo ke aanch, mere khwab sulagne do
jhado me kosee kosee dhup ki khushboo
tumhari khushboo tumhari khushboo tumhari khushboo

The scent of earth, awakened by rain, your scent,
the scent of earth, reborn in rain,
your scent, your scent, your scent, a river's flow,
the scent of mist, where dawn’s fingers begin to glow,
your scent, your scent, your scent, a secret held.

Upon breath, upon breath, inscribe my name,
inscribe a word unheard, unknown, a whispered flame,
embrace of arms, a thirst that takes to flight, a thirst that never ends,
the scent of henna, cool upon my hands,
your scent, your scent, your scent, a promise kept.

My body, light as cotton, a drifting trace,
in every vein, a cool fire's embrace,
upon my eyes, the warmth of cupped hands rest, let my dreams ignite,
the scent of sun, in groves of light,
your scent, your scent, your scent, the soul's delight.
