meri jan meri jan meri jan meri jan
hay dekhna dildar taro ki atari me
meri jan meri jan meri jan
hay dekhna dildar taro ki atari me
mere naina ke dono pat khule hain intjari me
meri jan meri jan meri jan

kabhi suraj kabhi badal kabhi dono satate hain meri jan
kabhi suraj kabhi badal kabhi dono satate hain
piya gharbar hamne bech dala teri yari me
meri jan meri jan meri jan meri jan

kabhi kehte ho tab aaye meri jan
kabhi kehte ho ab aaye
kabhi kehte ho tab aaye
hamari jan jayegi tumhari intjari me
meri jan meri jan meri jan meri jan
hay dekhna dildar taro ki atari me
mere naina ke dono pat khule hain intjari me
meri jan meri jan meri jan meri jan
jan meri jan meri jan meri jan meri jan

My soul, my soul, my soul, my soul,
Ah, to see my beloved in the attic of stars,
My soul, my soul, my soul,
Ah, to see my beloved in the attic of stars,
My eyes, their doors, wide open in wait,
My soul, my soul, my soul.

Sometimes sun, sometimes clouds, torment me, my soul,
Sometimes sun, sometimes clouds, both torment,
I've sold my home, my world, for your friendship,
My soul, my soul, my soul, my soul.

Sometimes you say, "Then I will come," my soul,
Sometimes you say, "Now I will come,"
Sometimes you say, "Now I will come,"
My life will leave in your waiting,
My soul, my soul, my soul, my soul,
Soul, my soul, my soul, my soul, my soul,
My eyes, their doors, wide open in wait,
My soul, my soul, my soul,
Soul, my soul, my soul, my soul, my soul.
