agar dil ke taaro pe main chhed sakta
nayi zindagi ka naya sa tarana
agar dil ke taaro pe

na manzil ki chahat mere dil me hoti
na manzil ki chahat mere dil me hoti
meri pyas ulfat ke nagmo me hoti
mere nakshe pahi
mere nakshe pahi batate thikana
agar dil ke taaro pe

main lahro ke hatho me patwar dekar
jo baste hai dil me unhe sath lekar
bahut dur sahil se le jata kashti
na wo rahte wo aur na main meri hasti
na wo rahte wo aur na main meri hasti
magar haye

adhura rahega apna fasana
nayi zindagi ka naya sa tarana
nayi zindagi ka naya sa tarana
agar dil ke taaro pe

If I could but strum the heart's strings,
A new song of a newborn life,
If I could but strum.

No longing for a destination in my heart,
My thirst would drink the melodies of love,
My footprints,
My footprints would reveal the dwelling,
If I could but strum.

I’d give the rudder to the waves,
And gather those who dwell within my heart,
Far from the shore, I'd sail the boat,
Neither they nor I, nor my existence, would remain,
Neither they nor I, nor my existence, would remain,
But alas,

Our tale will remain unfinished,
A new song of a newborn life,
A new song of a newborn life,
If I could but strum.
