saajanva sawan beeta jaye
saajanva sawan beeta jaye

preet kari aur karhu na jaani
haa preet kari aur karhu na jaani
murakh leet lagaye
murakh leet lagaye
sawan beeta jaye
saajanva sawan beeta jaye

jaisi karni waisi bharni
aa aa jaisi karni waisi bharni
ab kaahe pachhtaye
ab kaahe pachhtaye
sawan beeta jaye
saajanva sawan beeta jaye
saajanva sawan beeta jaye
saajanva sawan beeta jaye

My Beloved, the monsoon fades,
My Beloved, the monsoon fades.

Love I gave, yet knew not how to keep,
Yes, love I gave, and knew not how to keep,
A fool's touch, a careless sweep,
A fool's touch, a careless sweep.
The monsoon fades,
My Beloved, the monsoon fades.

As you sow, so shall you reap,
Ah, as you sow, so shall you reap,
Why now this weeping weep?
Why now this weeping weep?
The monsoon fades,
My Beloved, the monsoon fades.
My Beloved, the monsoon fades,
My Beloved, the monsoon fades.
