mausam bhi yaar hain, gulshan gharbaar hain
barkha ka saath hain, kaisi saugaat hain
ab jaye, kab jaye kaise bolo
jinke sath dil lagta hain, unke sath ho lo
jana kahan tha humko, kahan hum chal diye
choti choti hasrato mein hum ghul mil gaye
soch ke kya nikle the, ye kya hum kar gaye
jo kahte wo na karte na inme rah gaye
rab ye jane ab kya hoga rasta hain mushkil
kis chaurahe pe khade hain yaar

kitne armaan hain, kaise anjaam hain
barso ka kaam hain, lamho pe naam hain
der se aaye jaise aaye bolo
jinke sath dil lagta hain, unke sath ho lo

mitti ka bartan ho, bartan mein ho sona
sone ke bartan mein mitti aisa nahi hona
aasman agar chhath hain, ye dharti bichhona
ambar ko de saya aur dharti ka kya kona
rab ye jane kaisa hota kahna hain mushkil
hain us paar bhi gharbaar yaar

The season, a friend, the garden a home,
Rain's embrace, a gift bestowed, we roam.
When shall we leave, and when shall we depart?
With those your heart entwines, let your soul restart.
Where were we bound, and where did we instead tread?
In whispers of longing, our spirits wed.
What goals we held, now shattered and rent,
What we vowed we'd shun, in these hours we spent.
God knows now what is meant to be, the path is steep,
On which crossroads do we, beloved, weep?

So many longings, what fate does await?
Years of striving, on moments, our name's state.
We arrived delayed, yet here we reside,
With those your heart entwines, let your soul confide.

A vessel of clay, and within, a gold sheen,
Gold's vessel, no clay in its gleaming.
If sky is our roof, earth is our bed,
Give the heavens shade, where is the earth led?
God knows what will be, to say is so hard,
Beyond, too, a home, beloved, a yard.
