kabhi deke khushiya kabhi deke gum
kabhi deke khushiya kabhi deke gum
liye jindagi ne liye jindagi ne
liye jindagi ne bade imtiha
kabhi deke khushiya kabhi deke gum
kabhi deke khushiya

fizao se daman daman daman daman
fizao se daman bachaye wo kyu
bachaye wo kyu
baharo me jiska jala aashiya
baharo me jiska jala aashiya
liye jindagi liye jindagi
liye jindagi ne bade imtiha
kabhi deke khushiya kabhi deke gum
kabhi deke khushiya

koi jag ke dil me dil me dil me dil me
koi jag ke dil me tamanna nahi
tamanna nahi
mukaddar hua bhi to kab meharba
liye jindagi liye jindagi
liye jindagi ne bade imtiha
kabhi deke khushiya kabhi deke gum
kabhi deke khushiya

Sometimes giving joy, sometimes giving sorrow,
Sometimes giving joy, sometimes giving sorrow,
Life has taken, life has taken,
Life has taken great tests,
Sometimes giving joy, sometimes giving sorrow,
Sometimes giving joy.

Why would he shield his garment, his garment, his garment,
Shield his garment from the winds?
Shield his garment from the winds?
Whose dwelling place, in spring, was set ablaze,
Whose dwelling place, in spring, was set ablaze,
Life has taken, life has taken,
Life has taken great tests,
Sometimes giving joy, sometimes giving sorrow,
Sometimes giving joy.

No desire, no desire, no desire,
No desire resides within the world's heart,
Within the world's heart.
Even destiny, when it arrives, is seldom kind,
Life has taken, life has taken,
Life has taken great tests,
Sometimes giving joy, sometimes giving sorrow,
Sometimes giving joy.
