mere nadim mere humsafar udas na ho
kathin sahi teri manzil magar udas na ho
mere nadim mere humsafar

har ek talash ke raste me mushkile hai magar
har ek talash murado ke phool lati hai
hazar chad sitaro ka khun hota hai
to ek subha fizao me muskurati hai
mere nadim mere humsafar udas na ho
kathin sahi teri manzil magar udas na ho
mere nadim mere humsafar

kadam kadam pe chatane khadi rahe lekin
jo chal nikalte hai dariya to fir nahi rukte
hawaye jitna bahi takraye andhiya ban kar
magar ghatao ke parchangh kabhi nahi jhukte
mere nadim mere humsafar udas na ho
kathin sahi teri manzil magar udas na ho
mere nadim mere humsafar

jo apne khun ko pani bana nahi sakte
vo zindagi me naya jang la nahi sakte
jo rasto ke andhaire se har jate hai
vo manzilo ke ujalo ko pa nahi sakte
mere nadim mere humsafar

My friend, my companion, do not despair,
Though the path be harsh, do not despair.
My friend, my companion.

For every search, the road is strewn with trials,
Yet every quest brings forth the blooms of hope,
A thousand moons and stars must shed their life,
That dawn may smile upon the open slope.
My friend, my companion, do not despair,
Though the path be harsh, do not despair.
My friend, my companion.

At every step, the boulders stand defiant,
But those who journey onward, rivers free,
Though winds may rage, a tempest in their fury,
The banners of the clouds bend not the knee.
My friend, my companion, do not despair,
Though the path be harsh, do not despair.
My friend, my companion.

Those who cannot turn their blood to water,
Cannot ignite a new war in their days,
Those who surrender to the dark of pathways,
Surrender also to the sun's bright rays.
My friend, my companion.
