aurat ki zindgani re dunia teri nadani
aurat ki zindgani re dunia teri nadani

rato ko jale deepak jugnu
aur jivan bhar din rat jale
aur jivan bhar din rat jale
birhan rato ki rani
aurat ki zindgani re dunia teri nadani
aurat ki zindgani re dunia teri nadani

chanda jaise gore chehre par kirni ki hai rani
aur lal gulabi gal par
aur lal gulabi gal par khali aankho ka pani
aurat ki zindgani re dunia teri nadani
aurat ki zindgani re dunia teri nadani

ghunghat pe palke palko me sharmili meharbani
man lekar jag badnam kare
man lekar jag badnam kare pal me kar beimani
aurat ki zindgani re dunia teri nadani
aurat ki zindgani re dunia teri nadani

jab rup jawani jati hain rah jati yahi nishani
tuti chudi sarhane paydani surmedani
tuti chudi sarhane paydani surmedani
aurat ki zindgani re dunia teri nadani
aurat ki zindgani re dunia teri nadani

The woman's life, a world's naive decree,
The woman's life, a world's naive decree.
Like fireflies, lamps burn in the night,
And all her life, she burns, day and night.
A queen of nights, a desolate plea,
The woman's life, a world's naive decree,
The woman's life, a world's naive decree.

Upon a moon-like face, the dawn's soft ray,
And on her cheeks, a blush of rose and play,
But in her eyes, a silent, empty sea,
The woman's life, a world's naive decree,
The woman's life, a world's naive decree.

Beneath the veil, shy kindness hides its face,
Her heart ensnared, the world's harsh, judging space,
Her heart betrayed, then scorned immediately,
The woman's life, a world's naive decree,
The woman's life, a world's naive decree.

When youth departs, and beauty starts to fade,
These remnants linger, a life's parade,
Broken bangles, a chamber's low decree,
The woman's life, a world's naive decree,
The woman's life, a world's naive decree.
