Raga Kalavati - Drut Ektaal

चुरालूँ नैना बिना चैना ॥
डगर पे अंधियारा छाए ॥
घन बरसत सगरी रैना ॥ धृ ॥
नहीं आवत सुख आनंद ॥
नहीं भावत मन सुगंध ॥
'नादरंग' कब सुने उनही के मीठे बैना ॥१॥

Explanation:

I try to hide my yearning eyes. The overcast sky casts a long, dark shadow over my path. The clouds rain relentlessly all night long. 
I have no peace, no joy. The scent of the wet ground brings me no comfort. When will 'Naadrang' be able to hear the mellifluous words of 'the one'?
