aa jaa re more saiyaaN
Touch on each word to display its meaning
mohe ang ang kaii rang rang
koii haraa gulaabii laal
ye dhartii mere paaNvoN kii mehɛNdii
ambar laal gulaal
Several colors (dye) each part of mine
some green, pink, red
The earth is the henna of my feet,
the sky is red gulal
ye mausam milne kaa hai
phuuloN ke khilne kaa hai
aa jaa re more saiyaaN
aa jaa re more rasiyaa
aa jaa
This is the season to unite,
for flowers to blossom
Come, my beloved!
Oh, come, my libertine!
Come!
baadal meN maiN se chaNdrmaa
mohe dekh dekh muskaae
mujh se merii chaal puuchhne
pavan jhakore aae
ye mausam milne kaa hai
phuuloN ke khilne kaa hai
aa jaa re more saiyaaN
aa jaa re more rasiyaa
aa jaa
From within the clouds, the moon
peeps at me and smiles
The gusting wind goes
asking about my gait
This is the season to unite
For flowers to blossom
Come, my beloved!
Oh, come, my libertine!
Come!
lɛhraatii bal khaatii nadiyaa bulaae
koil kii piihuu piihuu piyaa piyaa gaae
aa jaa re aa jaa re
dil meN samaa jaa re
The fluctuating, twisting river calls out
The "tweet-tweet", beloved! beloved! or the cuckoo goes:
Come, oh, come!
Come, be contained in (my) heart!
kaii naam kaii ruup mere rom rom meN jaage
jag saaraa mujh ko bas apnaa apnaa laage
Several names and shapes awakening every pore or me,
now the whole world seems mine
ye mausam milne kaa hai
phuuloN ke khilne kaa hai
aa jaa re more saiyaaN
aa jaa re more rasiyaa
aa jaa
This is the season to unite,
for flowers to blossom
Come, my beloved!
Oh, come, my libertine!
Come!
Daalii Daalii jhuum jhuum rastaa dikhlaae
shabnam ke motii mere uupar luTaaeN
aa jaa re aa jaa re
dil meN samaa jaa re
A branch sways and shows (me) the way,
pearls of dew roll over me
Oh come, come!
Be contained in my heart!
ye Dagar Dagar kareN jigar jigar
jab tere raste jaauuN
meN yaad rakhuuN tujh ko rasiyaa
meN kisii ko yaad na aauuN
These paths encourage me
as I make my way towards you
I keep you in my thoughts, my libertine,
nothing else comes to mind
ye mausam milne kaa hai
phuuloN ke khilne kaa hai
aa jaa re more saiyaaN
aa jaa re more rasiyaa
aa jaa [ x3 ]
This is the season to unite,
for flowers to blossom
Come, my beloved!
Oh, come, my libertine!
Come! [x3]

This is the season for lovers to unite
For flowers to blossom
Come to me, my beloved
Oh come, my charming lover
Color me!

From within the clouds, the moon
