zindagi ye zindagi do ghadi ki zindagi
kaun jane kis bahane maut aa jae
jawani jhum ke gae
jawani jhum ke gae
jawani jhum ke gae
jawani jhum ke gae

tere mere bich koi duri na rahe
pyas mere man ki adhuri na rahe
tere mere bich koi duri na rahe
pyas mere man ki adhuri na rahe
manchali mai manchali aisi hun mai machali
kaun jane kis bahane bat ban jae
jawani jhum ke gae
jawani jhum ke gae
jawani jhum ke gae
jawani jhum ke gae

ankhe na chura ham se ankhe to mila
rah na jae aaj koi shikwa gila
ankhe na chura ham se ankhe to mila
rah na jae aaj koi shikwa gila
are aa gai mai aa gai tere liye mai aa gai
kaun jane kis bahane raz khul jae
jawani jhum ke gae
jawani jhum ke gae
jawani jhum ke gae
jawani jhum ke gae

sare ujale badal jaenge
ham to chupke se nikal jaenge
sare ujale badal jaenge
ham to chupke se nikal jaenge
ruk gai mai ruk gai
tere liye mai ruk gai
kaun jane kis bahane jam takrae
jawani jhum ke gae
jawani jhum ke gae
jawani jhum ke gae
jawani jhum ke gae
zindagi ye zindagi do ghadi ki zindagi
kaun jane kis bahane maut aa jae
jawani jhum ke gae
jawani jhum ke gae
jawani jhum ke gae
jawani jhum ke gae

A life, this life, a fleeting breath it seems,
Who knows by what excuse death will convene?
Youth dances and sings,
Youth dances and sings,
Youth dances and sings,
Youth dances and sings.

Let no distance now exist between us two,
Let not the thirst within my heart remain untrue.
Let no distance now exist between us two,
Let not the thirst within my heart remain untrue.
Wild am I, so wild, a spirit on the breeze,
Who knows by what pretext a matter finds release?
Youth dances and sings,
Youth dances and sings,
Youth dances and sings,
Youth dances and sings.

Do not steal your gaze, meet my eyes instead,
Lest today some complaint remain unsaid.
Do not steal your gaze, meet my eyes instead,
Lest today some complaint remain unsaid.
I have come, I have come, for you, my love, I've come,
Who knows by what device secrets become?
Youth dances and sings,
Youth dances and sings,
Youth dances and sings,
Youth dances and sings.

All the bright lights, they will transform and fade,
We will softly slip away, a silent serenade.
All the bright lights, they will transform and fade,
We will softly slip away, a silent serenade.
I have paused, I have paused, for you, I stay my flight,
Who knows by what chance our chalices unite?
Youth dances and sings,
Youth dances and sings,
Youth dances and sings,
Youth dances and sings.
A life, this life, a fleeting breath it seems,
Who knows by what excuse death will convene?
Youth dances and sings,
Youth dances and sings,
Youth dances and sings,
Youth dances and sings.
