shaame malang si, raate surang si
baghi udan pe hi naa jane kyun
ilahi mera ji aaye aaye, ilahi mera ji aaye aaye

sar pe sawal hai, jina filhal hai
khanabadoshiyo pe hi jane kyun
ilahi mera ji aaye aaye, ilahi mera ji aaye aaye

mera falsafa kandhe pe mera basta
chala main jaha le chala mujhe rasta
phulo pe nahi bundo ke samandar pe
ilahi mera ji aaye aaye, ilahi mera ji aaye aaye

shaame malang si, raate surang si
baghi udan pe hi naa jane kyun
ilahi mera ji aaye aaye, ilahi mera ji aaye aaye
ilahi ilahi

Like evenings wild, like nights of tunnels deep,
On rebel wings, why does my spirit leap?
My God, my soul, it yearns, it calls to rise,
My God, my soul, beneath these starlit skies.

A question marks my brow, to live, I must,
On nomad paths, why do I place my trust?
My God, my soul, it yearns, it calls to rise,
My God, my soul, reflected in my eyes.

My philosophy, a burden on my back,
The road I wander, guides me on the track.
Not on the blooms, but seas of falling dew,
My God, my soul, embraces something new,
My God, my soul, a truth I now pursue.

Like evenings wild, like nights of tunnels deep,
On rebel wings, why does my spirit leap?
My God, my soul, it yearns, it calls to rise,
My God, my soul, reflected in my eyes.
My God, my God.
