The lyrics of the song "Kahe Tarsaye" by Asha Bhosle convey themes of longing and desire. The repetition of the phrase "Kahe Tarsaye Jiya" emphasizes the intensity of this longing. The word "Jiya" refers to the heart or soul, indicating that the desire comes from a deep emotional place.
The opening lines express the longing for the season of youth and the lover's absence. The singer yearns for the return of a loved one who has left, and their absence leaves the heart longing and in pain. The repetition of the phrase "Jiyo" further emphasizes the depth of this longing.
The following lines depict a sense of eternal wakefulness and a singer who remains awake throughout the night, possibly waiting for their loved one to return. The mention of a "singer" who is awake and a "jhankar" (rhythm) that doesn't call out further emphasizes the idea of waiting and longing without any respite.
The repetition of the phrase "Kahe Tarsaye Jiya" in the chorus reaffirms the central theme of the song, highlighting the persistent yearning and longing felt in the heart. The repeated longing and desire for the loved one's presence creates a sense of vulnerability and emotional turmoil.
The closing lines of the song express a yearning for the rain, symbolizing a metaphorical shower of love and passion. The mention of the "ras ki puhar" (vessel of sweetness) and the "sapno ka jaa" (web of dreams) further add to the imagery of intoxicating desire and yearning that the singer feels in their heart.
Overall, "Kahe Tarsaye" is a poignant expression of longing, desire, and the emotional turmoil that comes from being separated from a loved one. The repetition of certain phrases and the use of vivid imagery contribute to the depth and intensity of these emotions.

काहे तरसाए जियरा
यौवन ऋतु सजन जा के ना आए
काहे तरसाए जियरा
काहे तरसाए...
नित-नित जागे ना
सोया श्रृंगार
झनन झन झनन, नित ना बुलाए
काहे जियरा तरसाए
काहे तरसाए जियरा...
नित-नित बरसे ना
रस की फुहार
सपना बन गगन, नित ना लुटाए
काहे जियरा तरसाए
काहे तरसाए जियरा...
नित-नित आये ना
तन पे निखार
सावन मन सुमन, नित न खिलाये
काहे जियरा तरसाए
काहे तरसाए जियरा...

Ashaji, it's raag jansammohini not kalavati. There's clear use of Rishabh which is absent in kalavati
