jeevan asha yeh hai meri jeevan asha yeh hai
jitne sahare toot chuke hain sabka sahara ye hai
meri jeevan asha yeh hai meri jeevan asha yeh hai
yahi meri saari punji yhi sab yahi sab dhan maya hai
yahi meri saari punji yhi sab yahi sab dhan maya hai
aankho ki thandak man ki dharas
aankho ki thandak man ki dharas aur andaata ye hai
meri jeevan asha yeh hai meri jeevan asha yeh hai

yahi yahi hai mujhko heera paana yhi hai moti moonga
naam hai jiska ek duwanni saara khazana ye hai
ye jo gayi to gaya khazana aas gayi aas gayi or jaan gayi
ye jo gayi to gaya khazana aas gayi aas gayi or jaan gayi
saare sahare saare sahare toot naa jaye
dil ko dhadkaye hai dil ko dhadkaye hai
jeevan aasha

Life's hope, this is my life's hope,
A haven for all broken supports,
My life's hope, this is my life's hope.

This, my sole treasure, my wealth's essence,
This, my sole treasure, my wealth's essence,
Coolness to my eyes, solace to my heart,
My provider, this is,
My life's hope, this is my life's hope.

This is my diamond, emerald, pearl, coral,
Whose name is a small coin, a trove of all treasures,
If this goes, the treasure goes, hope departs, life departs,
If this goes, the treasure goes, hope departs, life departs,
Lest all supports, all supports, break,
It makes the heart throb, the heart throb,
Life's hope...
