man ki been matwari baje
man ki been matwari baje
aasha jhume jiwan nache
man ki been matwari baje

pawan ke sang sang dole jiyara
jhulat aaya sawan pyara
lagan liye mai pal pal dekhu
sawan me bas rup tihara
soye sapne apne jage
man ki been matwari baje

rup nagar se khelne holi
nachti aayi pariyo ki toli
vasant rut hai man rang dalo
vasant rut hai aaaa
vasant rut hai man rang dalo
bolo magan ho prem ki boli
gao mil mil jo tum saaje
man ki been matwari baje
man ki been matwari baje

The soul's lute, intoxicated, sings,
The soul's lute, intoxicated, sings,
Hope dances, life takes wing,
The soul's lute, intoxicated, sings.

With the wind, the heart does sway,
Beloved monsoon, come what may,
A longing burns, I watch each hour,
In monsoon rains, your form, your power.
Sleeping dreams now start to wake,
The soul's lute, intoxicated, sings.

From the city of beauty, Holi's play,
A fairy troupe, dancing on their way,
The season of spring, the heart's embrace,
The season of spring, ah, come to grace,
The season of spring, color your space,
Speak joy, speak love, in sweet accord,
Sing together, in unison, explore,
The soul's lute, intoxicated, sings,
The soul's lute, intoxicated, sings.
