sajan re sajan kahta hai sawan
sajan re sajan kahta hai sawan
bahki hui hai hawaye
shahare badan pagal hai man
kaise ise samjhaye
sajan re sajan kahta hai sawan
sajan re sajan

madhosh aankho se kajal churaya hai
kya kya adaye leke sawan ye aaya hai
ho madhosh aankho se kajal churaya hai
kya kya adaye leke sawan ye aaya hai
kajal mera ye kaise churaya punche meri ye nigahen
sajan re sajan kahta hai sawan
sajan re sajan

rut hai shararati tanhaiya hai
bas me kaha meri angdaiya hai
ha ut hai shararati tanhaiya hai
bas me kaha meri angdaiya hai
angdai aai tanhai aai kahti hai aa dub jaye
shahare badan pagal hai man kaise ise samjhaye
sajan re sajan kahta hai sawan
bahki hui hai hawaye

Lover, O Lover, the monsoon sighs,
Lover, O Lover, the monsoon cries,
The wind in a frenzy, a fevered dance,
This body a city, a soul in a trance.
How to reason, how to tame the fire?
Lover, O Lover, the monsoon's desire,
Lover, O Lover.

Intoxicated eyes steal the kohl's dark grace,
What sweet devices, the monsoon's embrace!
Intoxicated eyes steal the kohl's dark art,
What sweet devices, tearing me apart!
How did it steal, this darkness that I adore,
My eyes now question, forevermore.
Lover, O Lover, the monsoon's call,
Lover, O Lover.

The season mischievous, the silences deep,
My languid stretches, secrets to keep.
The season mischievous, the silences creep,
My languid stretches, secrets to keep.
The stretch arrives, the silence too,
Whispering, come, let's drown anew.
This body a city, a soul in a trance,
How to reason, how to steal a glance?
Lover, O Lover, the monsoon's plea,
The wind in a frenzy, wild and free.
