hume to aaj isi baat par hansi aayi
hume to aaj isi baat par hansi aayi
bhar aayi aankh to hotho pe ragini aayi
bhar aayi aankh to hotho pe ragini aayi
hume to aaj


khushi kabayi ke jab dil bhi ho chala ruksat
khushi kabayi ke jab dil bhi ho chala ruksat
chirag bhujhne laga chirag bhujhne laga
jab to roshni aayi
hume to aaj

chalo koi to mila baat puchne wala
chalo koi to mila baat puchne wala
zara to chain mila zara to chain mila
kuch to zindgi aayi
hume to aaj


yeh jate jate jamane ko hum dikha dege
yeh jate jate jamane ko hum dikha dege
hamare jaane se hamare jaane se
dunia me kya kami aayi
hume to aaj isi baat par hansi aayi
bhar aayi aankh to hotho pe ragini aayi
bhar aayi aankh

Joy, a cloak we shed as the heart departed, gone,
When the lamp flickered, fading, dim,
Then, light dawned on.
And today…

At last, a soul to hear, a listener to find,
At last, a soul to hear, a listener to find,
A moment's peace, a breath of grace,
Life found, defined.
And today…

Before we leave, let the world its lesson learn,
Before we leave, let the world its lesson learn,
When we are gone, when we are gone,
What void will turn?
And today, a laughter bloomed, a sudden, knowing mirth,
As tears welled up, a melody on lips took birth.
As tears welled up…
