ajab zindagi ka hai ye safar
koi hai idhar, to koi hai udhar
kasam khake kahti hai meri nazar
sanam tu hi tu hai, main dekhu jidhar

meri saans me hai, teri hi khushbu
mere dil pe chhaya hai tera hi jadu
tere liye main, mere liye tu
khabar meri lele, are bekhabar
sanam tu hi tu hai, main dekhu jidhar
ajab zindagi ka hai ye safar
koi hai idhar, to koi hai udhar

A strange journey, this life's long road,
Some here reside, some drift abroad.
My gaze, with vows, its truth bestowed,
My love, in every glance, bestowed.

Within my breath, your fragrance thrives,
My heart, in your enchantment, strives.
For you, I live, for me, you strive,
Awake, my love, from slumber's hold,
My love, in every glance, behold.
A strange journey, this life's long road,
Some here reside, some drift abroad.
