ek yahi hai sacha nata or pyar hai jhuthe
ek yahi hai sacha nata or pyar hai jhuthe
maa ke dil pe thesh lage jab
dil bete ka tute maa ke dil pe thesh lage jab
dil bete ka tute iske lab se dua jo nikle
iske lab se dua jo nikle malik ko hai kubul
maa ko kabhi na bhul maa ko kabhi na bhul

maa ka nam jo lab par aaye
dubti kashti par lagale par lagale
maa ka nam jo lab par aaye
dubti kashti par lagale par lagale
sare jiwan me kare ujala iske kadam ki dhul
maa ko kabhi na bhul maa ko kabhi na bhul

One bond alone, a truth untarnished,
All other loves, a fleeting falsehood.
When a mother's heart is wounded,
And a son's own breaks in two,
When her lips then voice a blessing,
God himself will surely heed.
Never forget your mother,
Never forget.

The mention of her name, upon the lips,
Can guide a sinking ship to shore, to shore.
The mention of her name, upon the lips,
Can guide a sinking ship to shore, to shore.
Her footsteps' dust will light your life,
Through all your days, a shining grace.
Never forget your mother,
Never forget.
