qadamo me samaake paravaane
kabhi hansate hai kabhi rote hai
daaman se lipatakar divaane
kabhi hansate hai kabhi rote hai
kabhi hansate hai kabhi rote hai
daaman se lipatakar divaane
kabhi hansate hai kabhi rote hai
kabhi hansate hai kabhi rote hai

bekhudi kaa ik andaaz liye
aankhon me sau-sau naaz liye
kuchh nagmo ki paravaaz liye
kuchh soz liye kuchh saaz liye
vo sunakar ishq ke afasaane
kabhi hansate hai kabhi rote hai
kabhi hansate hai kabhi rote hai
daaman se lipatakar divaane
kabhi hansate hai kabhi rote hai
kabhi hansate hai kabhi rote hai

jazbaat-e-masti dub gayi
ashko me hansi dub gayi
go dil ki basti dub gayi
saahil pe kashti dub gayi
saahil pe kashti ha
saahil pe kashti dub gayi
saahil pe kashti dub gayi
saahil pe kashti dub gayi
saahil pe kashti dub gayi

divaane magar hai divaane
kabhi hansate hai kabhi rote hai
kabhi hansate hai kabhi rote hai
daaman se lipatakar divaane
kabhi hansate hai kabhi rote hai
ji kabhi hansate hai kabhi rote hai

Embraced in the footprints of light,
They laugh sometimes, sometimes weep.
Clinging to the hem, the devotees,
They laugh sometimes, sometimes weep.
They laugh sometimes, sometimes weep.
Clinging to the hem, the devotees,
They laugh sometimes, sometimes weep.
They laugh sometimes, sometimes weep.

Bearing an air of oblivion,
With a hundred gazes in their eyes,
With the flight of certain melodies,
With some burning, some harmony.
Hearing tales of love's lore,
They laugh sometimes, sometimes weep.
They laugh sometimes, sometimes weep.
Clinging to the hem, the devotees,
They laugh sometimes, sometimes weep.
They laugh sometimes, sometimes weep.

The intoxication of emotions drowned,
Laughter drowned in a sea of tears,
Though the heart's dwelling sank,
The ship sank on the shore.
The ship on the shore, yes,
The ship sank on the shore.
The ship sank on the shore.
The ship sank on the shore.
The ship sank on the shore.

But the devotees, they remain devotees,
They laugh sometimes, sometimes weep.
They laugh sometimes, sometimes weep.
Clinging to the hem, the devotees,
They laugh sometimes, sometimes weep.
Yes, they laugh sometimes, sometimes weep.
