aaj kathin hai preet dagariya
jara sambhal sambhal pag dharna
ho sakhi kathin hai preet dagariya
jara sambhal sambhal pag dharna

kahe dhak dhak dhadke tora jiya tora jiya
sakhi tora jiya
tohe aayenge milne tore piya
tore piya sakhi tore piya
kahe thandi aahe bharna
jara sambhal sambhal pag dharna
o jara sambhal sambhal sambhal sambhal
o sambhal sambhal pag dharna
ho sakhi kathin hai preet dagariya
jara sambhal sambhal pag dharna

jab pi se nain mil jayenge
nain mil jayenge
ho tere man ke kamal khil jayenge
kamal khil jayenge
jab pi se nain mil jayenge
nain mil jayenge
nayi dagar me prem nagar me
yad hame bhi karna
kabhi yad hame bhi karna
jara sambhal sambhal pag dharna
o jara sambhal sambhal sambhal sambhal
o sambhal sambhal pag dharna
ho sakhi kathin hai preet dagariya
jara sambhal sambhal pag dharna

bina kali ko kya bhanwara
tumko sajan pyare
rahe akele ek hami kismat ke mare
haye preet bina ek meet bina
ye kya jeena kya marna
haye preet bina ek meet bina
ye kya jeena kya marna
aji kya jeena kya marna
jara sambhal sambhal pag dharna
jara sambhal sambhal sambhal sambhal
o sambhal sambhal pag dharna
ho sakhi kathin hai preet dagariya
jara sambhal sambhal pag dharna

Today, love's path is a perilous climb,
Tread carefully, dear friend, one step at a time.
Yes, love's path is a perilous climb,
Tread carefully, dear friend, one step at a time.

Why does your heart pound so, my dear, your heart, your heart?
My friend, your heart?
Your beloved will come to meet you,
Your beloved, my friend, your beloved.
Why sigh with such a chill?
Tread carefully, one step at a time.
Oh, tread carefully, carefully, carefully,
Oh, tread carefully, one step at a time.
Yes, love's path is a perilous climb,
Tread carefully, dear friend, one step at a time.

When eyes meet the Beloved's gaze,
Meet the gaze,
Your heart's lotus will bloom in a haze,
Bloom in a haze.
When eyes meet the Beloved's gaze,
Meet the gaze,
In love's new lane, in love's sweet town,
Remember us too,
Sometimes remember us too.
Tread carefully, one step at a time.
Oh, tread carefully, carefully, carefully,
Oh, tread carefully, one step at a time.
Yes, love's path is a perilous climb,
Tread carefully, dear friend, one step at a time.

What does the bud offer the bee?
You have a beloved, so dear.
We alone, marked by fate, are here.
Alas, without love, without a friend,
What is this living, what is this death?
Alas, without love, without a friend,
What is this living, what is this death?
Ah, what is this living, what is this death?
Tread carefully, one step at a time.
Tread carefully, carefully, carefully,
Oh, tread carefully, one step at a time.
Yes, love's path is a perilous climb,
Tread carefully, dear friend, one step at a time.
