jeene wala tu agar marne se darna chod de
phir jidhar chahe udhar tufaan ka muh mod de
hai zindagi ek safar maujo se khelta gujar
naiya kinare pe lagaane wala ae mere maula
naiya kinare pe lagaane wala

badal bhi chaaye to kya
himmat ka daman nahi chodna
bijli draye to kya
manjil se munh na modna
aandhi ke jhoke kitna hi roke
aage ko badhta hi ja
naiya kinare pe lagaane wala ae mere maula
naiya kinare pe lagaane wala

baat ye meri suno
kahna hai jo kuch to jaldi kaho
mudkar idhar ko chalo
hasil hai kya raste bich ko
khatra udhar hai marne ka darr hai
dawat na do maut ko
naiya kinare pe lagaane wala a mere maula
naiya kinare pe lagaane wala

kaisi thi ye guljhili
humne to ki zara si dillagi
baate karo hosh ki
chaho agar aazma lo abhi
marke dikhao achcha to aao
dubenge milke sabhi
naiya kinare pe lagaane wala ae mere maula
naiya kinare pe lagaane wala
hai zindagi ek safar maujo se khelta gujar
naiya kinare pe lagaane wala ae mere maula
naiya kinare pe lagaane wala

If life you crave, and fear of dying shed,
Then turn the storm's fierce face, where will is led.
Life is a journey, waves your playful game,
O, my Lord, to shore, the vessel you will claim,
To shore you will claim.

Though clouds may gather, dark and vast and deep,
Forsake not courage, secrets you will keep.
Though lightning strikes, and shadows start to creep,
Turn not from goal, where dreams begin to sleep.
The gale may roar, and try to make you cease,
But onward surge, find inner peace.
O, my Lord, to shore, the vessel you will claim,
To shore you will claim.

Listen to my words, let truth resound,
Speak now, your heart's unspoken sound.
Turn here, and walk, on sacred ground,
What gains are found on paths that don't abound?
Danger lurks, death's cold embrace,
Do not invite its shadowed space.
O, my Lord, to shore, the vessel you will claim,
To shore you will claim.

What was this maze, this tangled, fleeting show?
We played, we jested, watched the moments flow.
Speak with wisdom, let your spirit grow,
If courage calls, the depths, now let us know.
Show death, then come, and with us, be free,
In depths we'll merge, eternally.
O, my Lord, to shore, the vessel you will claim,
To shore you will claim.
Life is a journey, waves your playful game,
O, my Lord, to shore, the vessel you will claim,
To shore you will claim.
