o maajhi re, apanaa kinaaraa, nadiyaa ki dhaaraa hai
o maajhi re

a high pitched flute interlude here makes you fil the intensity of emotions
and the depth of sound

saahilo pe bahane vaale
kabhi sunaa to hogaa kahi, o
ho, kaagazo ki kashtiyo kaa
kahi kinaaraa hotaa nahi
ho maajhi re maajhi re
koi kinaaraa jo kinaare se mile vo,
apanaa kinaaraa hai
o maajhi re

violins and flute again play havoc in your mind
paaniyo me bah rahe hai
kai kinaare tute hue o
ho, raasto me mil gae hai
sabhi sahaare chhute hue
koi sahaaraa majhadhaare me mile vo,
apanaa sahaaraa hai

o maajhi re, apanaa kinaaraa, nadiyaa ki dhaaraa hai
o maajhi re
the sailing beat continues till it fades out the sailor is gone

O Helmsman, your shore, the river's current weaves,
O Helmsman,

Those who drift on every coast,
Have you ever heard, somewhere, O,
Of paper boats that sail,
Never finding a shore?
O Helmsman... Helmsman,
The shore that meets the shore,
That is your shore.
O Helmsman,

We flow within the waters,
Many shores are broken, O,
In paths we find,
All the supports abandoned,
The support that meets the turmoil,
That is your support.

O Helmsman, your shore,
the river's current weaves,
O Helmsman.
