andhe jahaan ke andhe raaste, jaaye to jaaye kaha
andhe jahaan ke andhe raaste, jaaye to jaaye kaha
duniya to duniya tu bhi paraya, ham yaha naa waha
duniya to duniya tu bhi paraya, ham yaha naa waha

jine ki chaahat nahi, mar ke bhi raahat nahi
jine ki chaahat nahi, mar ke bhi raahat nahi
is paar aansu us paar aahe, dil mera bezuba
is paar aansu us paar aahe, dil mera bezuba
andhe jahaan ke andhe raaste, jaaye to jaaye kaha

hamko na koi bulaye, na koi palke bichhaye
hamko na koi bulaye, na koi palke bichhaye
ae gam ke maaro manzil wahi hai, dum ye tute jaha
ae gam ke maaro manzil wahi hai, dum ye tute jaha
andhe jahaan ke andhe raaste, jaaye to jaaye kaha

aagaaz ke din tera, anjaam taiy ho chuka
aagaaz ke din tera, anjaam taiy ho chuka
jalte rahe hai jalte rahenge, ye zami aasma
jalte rahe hai jalte rahenge, ye zami aasma
andhe jahaan ke andhe raaste, jaaye to jaaye kaha
duniya to duniya tu bhi paraya, ham yaha naa waha
andhe jahaan ke andhe raaste, jaaye to jaaye kaha

Blind world, shadowed paths, where does one go?
Blind world, shadowed paths, where does one go?
The world, a stranger, and you too, alien, here nor there we know.
The world, a stranger, and you too, alien, here nor there we know.

No desire to live, nor peace in death's embrace,
No desire to live, nor peace in death's embrace,
Tears on this shore, sighs on that, my heart, a voiceless space.
Tears on this shore, sighs on that, my heart, a voiceless space.
Blind world, shadowed paths, where does one go?

None to call us, none to pave the way,
None to call us, none to pave the way,
O, you grief-stricken souls, the end is where your breath will lay.
O, you grief-stricken souls, the end is where your breath will lay.
Blind world, shadowed paths, where does one go?

Your beginning's day, your end decreed,
Your beginning's day, your end decreed,
Burning we were, burning we’ll be, earth and sky agree.
Burning we were, burning we’ll be, earth and sky agree.
Blind world, shadowed paths, where does one go?
The world, a stranger, and you too, alien, here nor there we know.
Blind world, shadowed paths, where does one go?
