     तीरगी के रहे सिलसिले उम्र भर,
     गम रहे ज़िन्दगी नोचते उम्र भर।
     मंज़िलें खोजना दूर की बात थी,
     हम रहे खोजते रास्ते उम्र भर।

     tīrgī ke rahe silsile umra bhar,
     gam rahe zindagī nocte umra bhar.
     manzilẽ khojnā dūr kī bāt thī,
     ham rahe khojte rāste umra bhar.

     Darkness loomed throughout the life,
     Sadness sucked off life, throughout the life.
     It was far-fetched to discover goals,
     we kept searching for paths, throughout the life.
