bana sakte ho jab duniya hai kya mushkil bana dena
meri ek bat chhoti si mere bhagvan bana dena

ab to bata de avgun mere paanv pada hu shyam
ab to bata de avgun mere paanv pada hu shyam
lakh jatan kar ke bhi jag ke aa na saka mai kam
ab to bata de avgun mere paanv pada hu shyam

ho gaya suna ghar ka aangan tadap raha hai bhola bachpan
miane apna dharam nibhaya phir bhi ye parinam
paanv pada hu shyam ab to bata de avgun mere
paanv pada hu shyam

man to daya se tera bhara hai patthar ka to rup dhara hai
tujhse dayalu hai agar koi tuhi bata vo naam
paanv pada hu shyam ab to bata de avgun mere
paanv pada hu shyam ab to bata de avgun mere
paanv pada hu shyam
ab to bata de shyam ab to bata de shyam
ab to bata de shyam ab to bata de shyam

If you can build worlds, what hardship is creation?
Grant me, my Lord, this single small petition.

Now, reveal my failings, at your feet I fall, Shyam.
Now, reveal my failings, at your feet I fall, Shyam.
Despite a million efforts, I've failed in the world's game.
Now, reveal my failings, at your feet I fall, Shyam.

Silent is the courtyard, the innocent childhood yearns.
I have played out my dharma, yet this is what I've earned.
At your feet I fall, Shyam, now reveal my failings.
At your feet I fall, Shyam.

Your heart, they say, overflows with mercy, yet a stone you wear.
If there's one more compassionate than you, tell me their name.
At your feet I fall, Shyam, now reveal my failings.
At your feet I fall, Shyam, now reveal my failings.
At your feet I fall, Shyam.
Now, reveal, Shyam, now reveal, Shyam.
Now, reveal, Shyam, now reveal, Shyam.
