kya pata kab kaha se maregi zindagi
kya pata kab kaha se maregi zindagi
bas ke main zindagi se darta hoon
bas ke main zindagi se darta hoon
maut ka kya hai ek bar maregi

oh piche se jab koi aawaz de
andhere mein jab koi panchi ude
main darta hoon, main darta hoon
pani mein jab roz sooraj bujhe
darta hoon andhere ki aankh se
hairan hoon zindagi se

kya pata kab kaha se maregi zindagi
bas ke main zindagi se darta hoon
bas ke main zindagi se darta hoon
maut ka kya hai ek bar maregi

From where, when, will life strike its blow?
From where, when, will life strike its blow?
It's life itself that I now fear, you know.
It's life itself that I now fear, you know.
Death, after all, strikes only once, below.

When a voice calls from the shadows deep,
When a bird takes flight where darkness sleep,
I fear it all, I fear it all, I weep.
When the sun each day in waters weeps,
I fear the gaze that shadows keep,
And with life's ways, my soul does leap.

From where, when, will life strike its blow?
It's life itself that I now fear, you know.
It's life itself that I now fear, you know.
Death, after all, strikes only once, below.
