My love, saffron-hued, a monsoon's drench,
My heart's delight, your dark-skinned grace,
Your love, your love, your love alone.
My love, saffron-hued, a monsoon's drench,
My heart's delight, your dark-skinned grace,
Your love, your love, your love alone.
O jasmine and champak, a monsoon's drench,
My heart's delight, your playful ways,
Your games, your games, your games alone.

When eyes meet, all is understood,
Lost in your thoughts, entwined and bound,
Lost in your thoughts, entwined and bound.
When eyes meet, all is understood,
Lost in your thoughts, entwined and bound,
A brimming pot, yet no water within,
A brimming pot, yet no water within.
My love, saffron-hued, a monsoon's drench,
My heart's delight, your playful ways,
Your games, your games, your games alone.

Dawn's brow, adorned with a crimson dot,
Heavy eyelids, where slumber is sought,
Where slumber is sought.
Dawn's brow, adorned with a crimson dot,
Heavy eyelids, where slumber is sought,
The day's breath, an empty home,
The day's breath, an empty home.
My love, saffron-hued, a monsoon's drench,
My heart's delight, your dark-skinned grace,
Your love, your love, your love alone.

A thorn pierces, my love I call,
He stands, and I sway, here and there I fall,
Here and there I fall.
A thorn pierces, my love I call,
He stands, and I sway, here and there I fall,
Lightning flashes, without a cloud,
Lightning flashes, without a cloud.
My love, saffron-hued, a monsoon's drench,
My heart's delight, your wild heart’s dance,
Your ways, your ways, your ways alone.
My love, saffron-hued, a monsoon's drench,
My heart's delight, your wild heart’s dance,
Your ways, your ways, your ways alone.
Your love, your love, your love alone.
Your ways, your ways, your ways alone.
