Aaaaa jaaaaa Aaaaa jaaaaa
(Meraa dil ye pukaare aa jaa,
My heart is calling out to you to come
Mere gam ke sahaare aa jaa
Please come and comfort me in my grief
Bheegaa bheegaa hain samaan,
This weather is dewy
Aye se mein hain too kahaa?
Where are you at this time?
Meraa dil ye pukaare aa jaa,)2
My heart is calling out to you to come
(Too naheen to ye rut ye hawaa (kyaa karu?)
If you are not here, what are the cool winds for?
Door tuz se main rah ke bataa (kyaa karu?)
Sunaa sunaa hain jahaan, ab jaaoo main kahaa
Tell me how do I live without you? Where shall I go?
Bas itanaa muze samazaa jaa
Just tell me this, the world is desolate
Bheegaa bheegaa hain samaan,
This weather is dewy
Aye se mein hain too kahaa?
Where are you at this time?
Meraa dil ye pukaare aa jaa,)2
My heart is calling out to you to come
(Aandhiyaan wo chalee, aashiyaan (loot gayaa)2
There were storms that destroyed the home
Pyaar kaa muskuraataa jahaan (loot gayaa)2
The smiling world was robbed
Ek chhotee see jhalak, mere mitane talak
Just a glimpse of your smile, o my beloved
o chaand o chand mere dikhalaa jaa
Bheegaa bheegaa hain samaan,
This weather is dewy
Aye se mein hain too kahaa?
Where are you at this time?
Meraa dil ye pukaare aa jaa,)2
My heart is calling out to you to come
