chahe kare dooniya lakh jafa, chahe kare dooniya lakh jafa
jinda rahega name wafa
chahe kare dooniya lakh jafa

kaun kar saka juda jindagi se pyar ko
kaun kar saka juda jindagi se pyar ko
kis kaa hausala hai jo lut le bahar ko
aayi fiza phir bhi raha gulshan hara
jinda rahega name wafa, chahe kare dooniya lakh jafa

saaz tod doge tum, taar thartharayenge
saaz tod doge tum, taar thartharayenge
aag banake raag yeh tum ko bhi jalayenge
ae jalimo rokoge kya dil ki sada
jinda rahega name wafa, chahe kare dooniya lakh jafa

Though the world may heap a thousand woes,
Though the world may heap a thousand woes,
The name of loyalty shall live and grow.
Though the world may heap a thousand woes.

Who could sever love from life's embrace?
Who could sever love from life's embrace?
Whose courage dares to steal the spring's sweet grace?
Seasons may change, yet gardens stay in place.
The name of loyalty shall live and grow, though the world may heap a thousand woes.

You may break the strings, their trembling shall remain,
You may break the strings, their trembling shall remain.
This song, like fire, will consume you in its flame.
O cruel ones, can you truly stop the heart's refrain?
The name of loyalty shall live and grow, though the world may heap a thousand woes.
