Aah aah aah aah
Dripping, dripping, the clouds pour down,
Dripping, dripping, the clouds pour down,
Dripping, dripping, the clouds pour down,
Dripping, dripping, the clouds pour down.
Dark, kohl-rimmed, the rain-veiled sky,
Dark, kohl-rimmed, the rain-veiled sky,
So dances my heart within,
So dances my heart within,
Like a peacock in the wildwood's gleam,
Like a peacock in the wildwood's gleam.
Dripping, dripping, the clouds pour down.

Do not let my beloved's letter soak,
Do not let my beloved's letter soak,
That holds the words of his coming.
Foolish you, and your fleeting thought,
The monsoon brings tidings of his return,
Let the swings sway in the gardens,
Then the scent of henna on my hands.

Dripping, dripping, dripping, dripping,
Pours down, dripping, dripping,
Clouds, clouds, clouds.
Dripping, dripping, dripping, dripping,
Clouds, aah aah aah
Dripping, dripping, dripping, dripping,
Dripping, dripping, dripping, dripping,
Dripping, dripping, the clouds pour down,
Dripping, dripping, the clouds pour down.
Dark, kohl-rimmed, the rain-veiled sky,
Dark, kohl-rimmed, the rain-veiled sky,
So dances my heart within,
Like a peacock in the wildwood's gleam,
Like a peacock in the wildwood's gleam.
Dripping, dripping, the clouds pour down.
