बादल जो बरसे तोह भीगे तुम हो भीगे हम
बदल जो बरसे तोह भीगे तुम हो भीगे हम
टप टप टप टप गूंज रही है बूंदो की सरगम
ओह बादल जो बरसे तोह भीगे तुम हो भीगे हम
टप टप टप टप गूंज रही है बूंदो की सरगम
ओह बादल जो बरसे तोह भीगे तुम हो भीगे हम
फूल कलियाँ भीगे भीगे रस्ते गलिया भीगे भीगे
बारिश ने धो डाले है दुनिया के सारे गम हा हा हा
बादल जो बरसे तोह भीगे तुम हो भीगे हम
ठंडी ठंडी गीली गीली ये हवाएं है नशीली
ठंडी ठंडी गीली गीली ये हवाएं है नशीली
आग लगा दे जो पानी में ऐसा है मौसम
हाय बादल जो बरसे तोह भीगे तुम हो भीगे हम
बादल जो हा हा बरसे तोह हो हो भीगे तुम हो भीगे हम
टप टप टप टप गूंज रही है हु हु हु
The lyrics of Asha Bhosle's song Baadal Jo Barse Toh talk about the experience of being caught in the rain with a loved one. The song is filled with imagery of rain-soaked flowers, streets, and alleys, highlighting the romantic atmosphere created by the weather. The repetition of the phrase "Baadal jo barse toh" emphasizes the intoxicating effect of the rainfall on both the singer and her companion. The sound of the raindrops falling creates a symphonic melody that echoes throughout the song.
The second stanza speaks to the cathartic nature of the rain. It washes away all sorrows and troubles, leaving a fresh start. The imagery of the world being washed clean reflects the rejuvenating power of nature. The final stanza expresses the sensual nature of the experience. The cool, damp air and the sensory experience of touching wet surfaces creates an almost euphoric feeling in the singer and her companion. The song has a dreamy, romantic mood that transports the listener into a world of sensory perceptions.

All the songs of this album are so beautiful ! These were so ahead of time, I think it may still take another 20 years for people to appreciate this album.

The only solo by Asha Bhosle from Gardish. Though Jackie Shroff & Dimple Kapadia were not pair in this film still in this video they looks superb together.
@subrotomukherjee7860
All the songs of Gardish had very prominent bass line....which enhances the melodic structure of the songs...
