ek phul hans ke baagh mein kaliya khilaaye jaa
shabnam ke ashk apanee hansee me chhupaaye jaa
jine kaa dhang sikhaaye jaa
kaanto ki nok par khada muskuraye jaa
jine kaa dhang sikhaaye jaa

bhanvare ne tere kaan mein kuchh gunguna diya
bhanvare ne tere kaan mein kuchh gunguna diya
ye kah ke raaj-e-jindagi tujhako bata diya
ye kah ke raaje jindagi tujhako bata diya
rote huye jahan mein tu muskuraaye jaa, tu muskuraye jaa
jine kaa dhang sikhaaye jaa

bulbul ki sadaao me bhi paigham yahi hai
bulbul ki sadaao me bhi paigham yahi hai
koyal ki bhi har kuk subah sham yahi hai
koyal ki bhi har kuk subah sham yahi hai
o hanste huye phul tere husn ke sadke
patjhad me kya kare koyi itana bataaye jaa
jine kaa dhang sikhaaye jaa

Let the flower bloom, laughing in the garden,
And hide the tears of dew in its own mirth.
Teach the way to live,
Standing on the thorns, still smiling.
Teach the way to live.

The bumblebee whispered secrets in your ear,
The bumblebee whispered secrets in your ear,
Revealing the mystery of life to you,
Revealing the mystery of life to you.
In a world that weeps, you must smile, you must smile,
Teach the way to live.

Even in the nightingale's song, the message is the same,
Even in the nightingale's song, the message is the same.
The cuckoo's call, morning and evening, repeats it,
The cuckoo's call, morning and evening, repeats it.
Oh, laughing flower, I am devoted to your beauty,
Tell us what to do in autumn's fading,
Teach the way to live.
