bahut kathin din beete
bahut kathin din beete
raat gayi taaron ko ginte
din bhi niras beete
bahut kathin din beete

nipat akela manva
dil ka haal na jaane koi
ankhiyo ke sab aansu sukhe
prem dor hain khoi khoi
aaj humein na bhaye kuchh bhi
har aasha hain soyi
ek ek armaa haare hain
bhedbhav hain jeete
bahut kathin din beete

tera roop mujhe bharmaaye
karta hain aakarshit
mann karta hain dhyan tumhein
jeevan smsav smparmit
lekin ye man saath na paakar
chintao se chintit
saath tumhara kab hoga
kab bhaag ki parmite
bahut kathin din beete
bahut kathin din beete
raat gayi taaron ko ginte
din bhi niras beete
bahut kathin din beete

tum mera sarvasva tumhi ho
mera tan man jeevan
tere liye saja rakha hain
antar tan mein upvan
aaoge to kaliya khilkar
bhar dengi man madhuban
kat jayenge kasht roj ke
madira peete peete
bahut kathin din beete

The hardest days they passed,
The hardest days they passed,
The night, counting stars as it went,
The days, dull, they didn't last,
The hardest days they passed.

My soul is utterly alone,
No one knows the heart's true plight,
All the tears of my eyes have dried,
The thread of love, lost to sight.
Nothing pleases me today,
Every hope has taken flight.
Each desire has lost its fight,
Discrimination won the feat,
The hardest days they passed.

Your form beguiles and lures me,
It draws me near, it calls my name,
My heart desires to give to you,
My life, my all, the same.
But this heart, finding no support,
Is troubled by its strain,
When will your presence finally be,
When will fate's permission meet?
The hardest days they passed,
The hardest days they passed,
The night, counting stars as it went,
The days, dull, they didn't last,
The hardest days they passed.

You are my all, my everything,
My body, mind, and life are thine,
For you, I've prepared a garden,
Within my inner shrine.
If you come, the flowers will bloom,
And fill my heart with wine,
My daily sorrows will be gone,
As I drink love's sweet retreat,
The hardest days they passed.
