O rain of the foreign skies

Phir se aaiyo badra bidesi
Lyrics by Gulzar, song by Asha Bhonsle
Phirse aaiyo badra bidesi tere pankhon pey moti jadungi
O rain of the foreign skies, please come again this way.
I will decorate your wings with precious pearls.
bharke jaaiyo hamari talaiyya mein talaiyya kinare milungi
tujhe mere kale kamli vale ki saundh.
Fill up my pool with water. I will meet you by the pool,
I swear by my black silky locks.
Tere jane ki rut mey jaanti hu mudh ke aane ki reet hai ki nahi
kale darga se poochungi jaake tere man mey bhi preeth hai ke nahi
kachchi puliya se hoke gujariyo kachchi puliya kinare milungi
Phirse aaiyo badra bidesi tere pankhon pey moti jadungi
tujhe mere kale kamli vale ki saundh.
I know the way you go. But do you ever come back too?
I will ask the black clouds if you have love in your heart too.
Come by the wooden bridge, I will meet you there.
Tu jo ruk jaaye meri atariya main atariya pey jhaalar lagadoo
daaloo char taaveez gale mey apne kaajal se bindiya lagaadoo
chhuke jaaiyo hamari bageechey mein peepal ke aadhe milungi
Phirse aaiyo badra bidesi tere pankhon pey moti jadungi
If you stop by my window, I will put new drapery on it.
I will put four talisman on your neck and put a spot on your forehead,
using my eye makeup (kajaal). Touch my garden as you go by, I will meet you from behind the cover of the peepal tree.
