mohabbat hai jawani hai to fir kya gam hai pyari
to phir gam kyo
bahare zindagani hai to fir kya gam hai pyari
to phir gam kyo
mohabbat hai jawani hai to fir kya gam hai pyari
to phir gam kyo

jo kal aayega uska gam kare kyo
uska gam kare kyo
jo sathi maut se pahle mare kya wo pahle mare kyon
ye duniya aani jani hai to fir kya gam hai pyari
to phir gam kyo
mohabbat hai jawani hai to fir kya gam hai pyari
to phir gam kyo

utha le taaj chede saaj tarana chede saaj tarana
tu de aawaz de gujara zamana gujara zamana
samay ki mahfil gaani hai to fir kya gam hai pyari
to phir gam kyo
mohobbat hai jawani hai to fir kya gam hai pyari
to phir gam kyo
mohabbat hai jawani hai to fir kya gam hai pyari
to phir gam kyo

If love blooms, if youth unfurls, dear one,
Why then this sorrow?
If spring's own breath is life's caress, dear one,
Why then this sorrow?
If love blooms, if youth unfurls, dear one,
Why then this sorrow?

Why grieve for a tomorrow yet unseen?
Unseen and still unborn?
Why let a friend die before death's dark decree?
Die before their time?
This world, a fleeting vision, dear one,
Why then this sorrow?
If love blooms, if youth unfurls, dear one,
Why then this sorrow?

Raise high your crown, the strings awaken, play!
Play the sweet melody!
Give voice, the past now fades away, it fades away!
Time’s revelry is ever near, dear one,
Why then this sorrow?
If love blooms, if youth unfurls, dear one,
Why then this sorrow?
If love blooms, if youth unfurls, dear one,
Why then this sorrow?
