bada jor hai sat suro me bada jor hai sat suro me
bahte aasu jate hai tham bahte aasu jate hai tham
tu ched saki sargum tu ched saki sargum
jab dil ko sataye gum
tu ched saki sargum tu ched saki sargum

rang birangi sat badaliya sat badaliya

kato ko jo kar de kaliya kato ko jo kar de kaliya
lade ek naya mausam lade ek naya mausam
tu ched sakhi sargum tu ched sakhi sargum

sat suro ke sath hai jhule sat suro ke sath hai jhule
jo chule wo sab dukh bhule sab dukh bhule sab dukh bhule
rahe magan har dum rahe magan har dum
tu ched saki sargum tu ched saki sargum
jab dil ko sataye gum tu ched saki sargum
tu ched saki sargum
ched saki sargum tu ched saki sargum

When sorrow's shadow falls,
When grief's cold hand enthralls,
Friend, awaken the scales,
Awaken the scales.

In music's seven notes reside,
A power where tears subside,
Where weeping finds its tide,
And sorrow's secrets hide.
Awaken the scales,
Awaken the scales.

When sorrow's shadow falls,
Friend, awaken the scales,
Awaken the scales.

Seven hues, a vibrant array,
Seven veils that light the way,
Transforming thorns to bloom,
And banishing all gloom,
A brand new season born,
A brand new season born.
Awaken the scales,
Awaken the scales.
When sorrow's shadow falls,
Friend, awaken the scales,
Awaken the scales.

Seven swings, the notes unfurl,
Seven cradles of the world,
Where all the heart's despair,
Is lifted on the air,
Ever joyous, ever bright,
Ever joyous, in pure light.
Awaken the scales,
Awaken the scales.
When sorrow's shadow falls,
Friend, awaken the scales,
Awaken the scales,
Awaken the scales.
