lo rukh badal raha hain , fir zindagi ka dhara
le kar chali hain duaa, allah ka sahara
khudard ye nazara

ae do jaha ke wali, de de jara sahara
haule haule jhuke jhuke, tufa me pukara
dikhla de ab kinara, khudard ye nazara

barbad raste chal, fir zindagi gavah hain
hasi hain na anuragi, ghar hai na aasta hain
gardish me hain sitara, khudard ye nazara

manjil hain dur fir bhi, ummid chal rahi hain
majbur hain jawani, kanto me pal rahi hain
aaho pe hain gujara, khudard ye nazara

kya dekhti hain aankhe, ghar hain na ab wo dar hain
khela jaha ladakpan, ab wo jagah khndhar hain
dekhe koi khudara, khudard ye nazara

kab tak yu hi firegi, takdeer ki satai
bewa ki kul kamai, le de ke ek bhai
dil ka vahi sahara, khudard ye nazara

The course now shifts, life's current turns anew,
Carrying prayers, God's grace, our only view.
Behold this sacred scene.

O Lord of worlds, lend now your gentle hand,
As softly bowed, amidst the storm we stand.
Show us the promised land, behold this sacred scene.

Through ruined paths, life's witness we remain,
No laughter rings, no lover's sweet refrain,
No home, no haven, our star in endless strain, behold this sacred scene.

Though distant far, the goal, yet hope takes flight,
Youth's strength is bound, in thorns it finds its plight,
Our sighs the passing years, behold this sacred scene.

What do these eyes now see, no home, no door,
Where childhood played, ruins forevermore,
May someone witness now, behold this sacred scene.

How long shall fate's dark hand forever roam,
A widow's worth, her brother's only home,
The heart's sole refuge true, behold this sacred scene.
