ai meri jindagi
ai meri jindagi, aaj raat jhum le, aasmaan ko chum le
kisko pata hai kal aaye ke na aaye
ai meri jindagi, aaj raat jhum le, aasmaan ko chum le
kisko pata hai kal aaye ke na aaye, ai meri jindagi

aaj hai duniya teri jhum le o matvaale
aaj hai duniya teri
yeh anamol jamaane phir nahi aane vaale
dekh yeh rut kahi bit naa jaaye
ai meri jindagi, aaj raat jhum le, aasmaan ko chum le
kisko pata hai kal aaye ke na aaye, ai meri jindagi

pal pal katati jaaye saans ki naajuk dori
pal pal katati jaaye
jalate kanval bujhaaye maut ki sina jori
agale hi pal jaane kya ho jaaye
ai meri jindagi, aaj raat jhum le, aasmaan ko chum le
kisko pata hai kal aaye ke na aaye, ai meri jindagi

aaj thahar hi na jaaye dhalati raat ke saaye
aaj thahar hi na jaaye
kal kisne dekha hai aaye ya na aaye
aaye bhi toh jaane hame paaye ke na paaye
ai meri jindagi, aaj raat jhum le, aasmaan ko chum le
kisko pata hai kal aaye ke na aaye, ai meri jindagi

pal pal katati jaaye saans ki naajuk dori
pal pal katati jaaye
jalate kanval bujhaaye maut ki sina jori
agale hi pal jaane kya ho jaaye
ai meri jindagi, aaj raat jhum le, aasmaan ko chum le
kisko pata hai kal aaye ke na aaye, ai meri jindagi

O, my life,
dance tonight, kiss the heavens.
Who knows if tomorrow will arrive?
O, my life,

Today, the world is yours, revel, O, you who are drunk on life.
Today, the world is yours.
These precious moments, never to return.
See that this season does not slip away.
O, my life, dance tonight, kiss the heavens.
Who knows if tomorrow will arrive?
O, my life,

Moment by moment, the thread of breath thins.
Moment by moment, it thins.
Burning lotuses extinguish, death's chest tightens.
In the next breath, who knows what may be?
O, my life, dance tonight, kiss the heavens.
Who knows if tomorrow will arrive?
O, my life,

May we not be frozen in the shadows of the fading night?
May we not be frozen.
Who has seen tomorrow, whether it comes or not?
Even if it comes, will it find us, or not?
O, my life, dance tonight, kiss the heavens.
Who knows if tomorrow will arrive?
O, my life,

Moment by moment, the thread of breath thins.
Moment by moment, it thins.
Burning lotuses extinguish, death's chest tightens.
In the next breath, who knows what may be?
O, my life, dance tonight, kiss the heavens.
Who knows if tomorrow will arrive?
O, my life.
