ik baarii aa
Touch on each word to display its meaning
ik baarii aa bhii jaa yaaraa , ik baarii aa
raah taakuuN maiN bechaaraa ik baarii aa
[ both lines x2 ]
Come meet me even once, friend, come once!
I, the unfortunate, am looking in wait at your path, come once!
[both lines x2]
Dhal rahii shaam hai dil tere naam hai
iskii aadat banii hai terii yaariyaaN
Evening is waning, (my) heart is in your name
your intimacies have become its habit
chaaNd huuN maiN tuu hai taaraa ik baarii aa
ik baarii aa bhii jaa yaaraa ik baarii aa
I am the moon, you are a star, come once!
Come meet me even once, friend, come once!
ye ishq kii iNthaa le ne lagii imtHaan
Had se guzrne lagii haiN merii chaahteN
dhaRkan kii betaabiyaaN karne lagii iltijaa
lag jaa gale se zaraa to mile raahteN
bas tujhe chaahnaa ik yahii kaam hai
kaam aane lagii saarii beqraariyoN
This extremity of love puts me to the test,
my desires are enduring to the limit
The restlessness of my heartbeats started to request:
"embrace me, so I find a little ease!"
Just wanting you is my one and only purpose
and it seems to have to do with all my restlessness
us pe samaa bhii hai pyaaraa ik baarii aa
ik baarii aa bhii jaa yaaraa ik baarii aa
On top of that, the time is lovely, come once!
Come meet me even once, friend, come once!
hai pyaar to kaii dafaa kiyaa
tujh se nahiiN kiyaa to kyaa kiyaa
teraa meraa ye vaastaa
hai is zindagii kii daastaan
yaa phir koii hamaaraa pɛhle se hai raabitaa
I have fallen in love on many occasions
but it wasn't with you, so it doesn't matter
This (mysterious) connection of ours
Is the tale of this life (of mine)
Or did we have a connection even from before?
to ik baarii aa … aa bhii jaa [ x2 ]
Come meet me once, indeed, come!

ik baarii aa (Hindi: इक बारी आ, Urdu: اِک باری آ) "Come once!" is a song featured in the 2017 Bollywood film "Raabta".
The song's title contains the word baarii, meaning "one time, once, turn, time", etc.
In Punjabi, the spelling of that word is vaarii with a "v", and the title in most video clips is kept as "vaarii" or "vaari", even for Hindustani versions of the song.
This video clip shows the two main characters, Shiv ( Sushant Singh Rajput) and Saira (Kriti Sanon), with the background of the city of Budapest, while they say goodbye to each other, and then they keep thinking about each other.
The song also speaks about how both characters seem to be sharing some mysterious connection (the "raabta" of the film's title) even before their first encounter.
The lyrics were written by Amitabh Bhattacharya, and the music was composed by Pritam.
The playback singer was Arijit Singh.
