baadalo baraso nayan ki kor se
bijaliyo kadako hriday ki or se
baadalo baraso nayan ki kor se
bijaliyo kadako hriday ki or se

aye ghataao garjanaa ko thaam lo
aaj mere karun svar se kaam lo
aaj mere, aaj mere karun svar se kaam lo
bandh gaya saavan nayan ki dor se
baadalo, baadalo baraso nayan ki kor se

zehar ko amrit samajh kar pi rahi
meen jal bin deen hokar ji rahi
praan tadape bhaagya ke jhakjhor se
baadalo, baadalo baraso nayan ki kor se
bijaliyo kadako hriday ki or se
baadalo baraso nayan ki kor se

Let the clouds rain from the eye's frail shore,
Let lightning crack from the heart's deep core.
Let the clouds rain from the eye's frail shore,
Let lightning crack from the heart's deep core.

O, storm clouds, hold your thunder's might,
Let my voice be the work of this night.
Today, mine, today mine, let my voice be the work of this night,
The monsoon bound by the eye's soft tie,
Let the clouds, let the clouds rain from the eye's frail shore.

I drink poison, believing it sweet,
The fish live on, though the water deplete.
My soul aches, by fate's harsh roar,
Let the clouds, let the clouds rain from the eye's frail shore,
Let lightning crack from the heart's deep core,
Let the clouds rain from the eye's frail shore.
