aaj na jane, aaj na jane
aaj na jane rah rah kyon dil ye mera dole
dil ye mera dole zindagi ki nav chali
zindagi ki nav chali jaye haule haule re
dil ye mera dole aaj na jane aaj na jane

panchi do deson ke bhule anjane, bhule anjane
abhi mile abhi ude kaun desh na jane, des na jane
ek to puchhe ek to puchhe, kaun ho sange
ek na mose bole dil ye mera dole
zindagi ki nav chali jaye haule haule re
dil ye mera dole aaj na jane aaj na jane

naiyya chali jaye re
chali jaye re laharon ke sahare
door kahen, door kahen chhupe
sapne hamare, sapne hamare kaun hai jo
kaun hai jo raz nasebon ke yahan khole
dil ye mera dole
zindagi ki nav chali jaye haule haule re
dil ye mera dole aaj na jane aaj na jane

Today, unknown, today unknown,
Why does my heart tremble, time unknown?
My heart trembles, life's vessel glides,
Life's vessel glides, slowly, tide upon tide.
My heart trembles, today unknown, today unknown.

Birds of two lands, lost, unknown, lost, unknown,
Met now, now fly, which land unknown, land unknown.
One asks, one asks, "Who are you, companion?"
One speaks not to me, my heart trembles.
Life's vessel glides, slowly, tide upon tide.
My heart trembles, today unknown, today unknown.

The boat sails onward,
Sails onward, on the waves' embrace.
Far away, far away, hidden,
Our dreams, our dreams, who will,
Who will unveil destiny's secrets?
My heart trembles.
Life's vessel glides, slowly, tide upon tide.
My heart trembles, today unknown, today unknown.
