| Bahaaron phool barsaao, Meraa mehboob aayaa hai Meraa mehboob aayaa hai Bahaaron phool barsaao, Meraa mehboob aayaa hai Meraa mehboob aayaa hai | O spring, shower flowers, My beloved is here My beloved is here O spring, shower flowers, My beloved is here My beloved is here |
| Hawaao raagnee gaao, Meraa mehboob aayaa hai Meraa mehboob aayaa hai | O winds, sing a song, My beloved is here My beloved is here |
| O laalee phool kee mehandee lagaa in gore haathon mein | O crimson flowers, apply henna to her beautiful hands |
| Utar aa aye ghataa kaajal lagaa in pyaaree aankhon mein | O clouds, come down, and apply kohl* to her beautiful eyes |
| sitaaro maang bhar jaao, meraa mehboob aayaa hai meraa mehboob aayaa hai Bahaaron phool barsaao, Meraa mehboob aayaa hai Meraa mehboob aayaa hai | O stars, fill up the parting of her hair My beloved is here My beloved is here O spring, shower flowers, My beloved is here My beloved is here |
| Nazaaron har taraf ab taan do ek noor kee chaadar | O beautiful sights, spread beauty all around |
| Ba.daa sharmilaa dilbar hai, chalaa jaaye naa sharamaa kar | My beloved is very shy, she may leave embarrassed |
| Zaraa tum dil ko behlaao, meraa mehboob aayaa hai meraa mehboob aayaa hai Bahaaron phool barsaao, Meraa mehboob aayaa hai Meraa mehboob aayaa hai | Keep her happy My beloved is here My beloved is here O spring, shower flowers, My beloved is here My beloved is here |
| Sajaayi hai jawaan kaliyo.n ne ab yeh sej ulfat ki Inhe maaloom tha aayegi ek din rut mohabbat ki | Young buds have now adorned this bed of love They knew the season of love would come one day |
| Fizaaon rang bikhraao, meraa mehboob aayaa hai meraa mehboob aayaa hai Bahaaron phool barsaao, meraa mehboob aayaa hai meraa mehboob aayaa hai | O nature, spread colour My beloved is here My beloved is here O spring, shower flowers, My beloved is here My beloved is here |
