bahaaro phul barasao mera mahabub aaya hai
mera mahabub aaya hai
havaao raagini gaao mera mahabub aaya hai
mera mahabub aaya hai

o laali phul ki mehandi lagaa in gore haatho me
utar aa ai ghataa kaajal, laga in pyaari aankho me
sitaaro maang bhar jaao
mera mahabub aaya hai mera mahabub aaya hai

nazaaro har taraf ab taan do ik nur ki chaadar
bada sharmilaa dilabar hai, chala jaye na sharama kar
zara tum dil ko bahalao
mera mahabub aaya hai mera mahabub aaya hai

sajaai hai javaan kaliyo ne ab ye sej ulfat ki
inhe maalum tha aaegi ik din ritu muhabbat ki
fizaao rag bikharao
mera mahabub aaya hai mera mahabub aaya hai

Shower blooms of spring, for my Beloved has come,
My Beloved has come.
Let the breezes sing their melodies, my Beloved has come,
My Beloved has come.

O, crimson blush of the rose, henna these fair hands,
Descend, O cloud, and adorn these sweet eyes with kohl.
Stars, fill the parting of the hair,
My Beloved has come, my Beloved has come.

Spread a veil of light, everywhere, in every view,
My bashful lover, lest he shy away.
Calm his heart, soothe him,
My Beloved has come, my Beloved has come.

Young buds have prepared this bed of love,
They knew the season of love would one day arrive.
O atmosphere, scatter color,
My Beloved has come, my Beloved has come.
