| Ghanan ghanan ghan |
The clouds are thundering |
| Ghanan ghanan ghan |
The clouds are thundering |
|
|
| Ghanan ghanan ghir ghir aaye badra |
The clouds are coming thundering |
| Ghane ghan ghor kaare chhaye badra |
The clouds have made the sky dark |
| Dhamak dhamak goonje badra ke danke |
The clouds are making loud noises |
| Chamak chamak dekho bijuriya chamke |
Look, the lightning is flashing |
| Mann dhadkaye badarwa |
The clouds make our heartbeats faster |
| Mann dhadkaye badarwa |
The clouds make our heartbeats faster |
| Mann mann dhadkaye badarwa |
The clouds make our heartbeats faster |
|
|
| Kaale megha, kaale megha |
Black clouds, black clouds |
| Pani toh barsaao |
Please bring the rains |
| Kaale megha, kaale megha |
Black clouds, black clouds |
| Pani toh barsaao |
Please bring the rains |
| Bijuri ki talvar nahin |
Don't use the sword of lightning |
| Boondon ke baan chalao |
Shoot the arrows of water |
| Megha chhaye, barkha laye |
The clouds accumulate and bring rain |
| Ghir ghir aaye, ghirke aaye |
They are spreading around |
| Kahe yeh mann machal machal |
My heart in happiness says |
| Na yoon chal sambhal sambhal |
Don't walk so carefully |
| Gaye din badal, tu ghar se nikal |
The days have changed, so come out |
| Barasne waala hai ab amrit jal |
Nectarous water is about to fall |
| Duvidha ke din beet gaye |
The days of dilemma are gone |
| Bhaiya malhaar sunaao |
Brother, sing the song of rain |
|
|
| Ghanan ghanan ghir ghir aaye badra |
The clouds are coming thundering |
| Ghane ghan ghor kaare chhaye badra |
The clouds have made the sky dark |
| Dhamak dhamak goonje badra ke danke |
The clouds are making loud noises |
| Chamak chamak dekho bijuriya chamke |
Look, the lightning is flashing |
| Mann dhadkaye badarwa |
The clouds make our heartbeats faster |
| Mann dhadkaye badarwa |
The clouds make our heartbeats faster |
| Mann mann dhadkaye badarwa |
The clouds make our heartbeats faster |
|
|
| Ras agar barsega |
If it rains |
| Kaun phir tarsega |
Then no one will yearn |
| Koyaliya gaayegi baithi mundheron par |
The cuckoo bird will sing on the parapet |
| Joh panchi gaayenge |
If the birds sing |
| Naye din aayenge |
Then new days will come |
| Ujaale muskura denge andheron par |
The light will smile on the darkness |
| Prem ki barkha mein bheege bheege tann mann |
Our body and soul will get wet in the rain of love |
| Dharti pe dekhenge pani ka darpan |
We will see a mirror of water on earth |
| Jayiyo tum jahan jahan |
Wherever you'll go |
| Dekhiyo wahan wahan |
Over there you'll see |
| Yahin ek samaan ki dharti yahan |
The same kind of scenery of earth |
| Hai pehne saat rangon ki chunariyan |
Wearing a scarf of seven colours |
|
|
| Ghanan ghanan ghir ghir aaye badra |
The clouds are coming thundering |
| Ghane ghan ghor kaare chhaye badra |
The clouds have made the sky dark |
| Dhamak dhamak goonje badra ke danke |
The clouds are making loud noises |
| Chamak chamak dekho bijuriya chamke |
Look, the lightning is flashing |
| Mann dhadkaye badarwa |
The clouds make our heartbeats faster |
| Mann dhadkaye badarwa |
The clouds make our heartbeats faster |
| Mann mann dhadkaye badarwa |
The clouds make our heartbeats faster |
|
|
| Pedhon par jhoole daalo |
Mount the swings on trees |
| Aur oonchi peng badhao |
And swing them high |
| Kaale megha, kaale megha |
Black clouds, black clouds |
| Pani toh barsaao |
Please bring the rains |
| Kaale megha, kaale megha |
Black clouds, black clouds |
| Pani toh barsaao |
Please bring the rains |
| Bijuri ki talvar nahin |
Don't use the sword of lightning |
| Boondon ke baan chalao |
Shoot the arrows of water |
|
|
| Hey hey hey ... hmm hmm hmm ... o o o |
Hey hey hey ... hmm hmm hmm ... o o o |

| Aayi hai rut matwali |
A pleasant season has come |
| Bichane haryali |
To spread the greenery |
| Yeh apne sang mein layi hai saawan ko |
It has brought with itself the rains |
| Yeh bijuri ki payal |
This anklet of lightning |
| Yeh baadal ka aanchal |
This scarf of clouds |
| Sajaane layi hai dharti ki dulhan ko |
Has come to adorn the bride of the earth |
| Daali daali pehnegi phoolon ke kangan |
Branches will wear bracelets of flowers |
| Sukh ab barsega aangan aangan |
There will be joy in every courtyard |
| Khilegi ab kali kali |
Now the flower buds will bloom |
| Hansegi ab gali gali |
Now the streets will be smiling |
| Hawa joh chali toh rut lagi bhali |
The weather felt good as the wind blew |
| Jala de joh tann mann woh dhoop dhali |
The hot sun burning the body has gone |
|
|
| Ghanan ghanan ghan |
The clouds are thundering |

Black clouds, black clouds |
| Pani toh barsaao |
Please bring the rains |
| Pani toh barsaao |
Please bring the rains |
| Bijuri ki talvar nahin |
Don't use the sword of lightning |
| Boondon ke baan chalao |
Shoot the arrows of water |
| Boondon ke baan chalao |
Shoot the arrows of water |
|
