chaman me rah ke virana mera dil hota jaata hai
chaman me rah ke virana mera dil hota jaata hai
khushi me aaj kal kuchh gam bhi shaamil hota jaata hai
chaman me rah ke virana mera dil hota jaata hai
khushi me aaj kal kuchh gam bhi shaamil hota jaata hai
chaman me rah ke virana

na jaane kyo badalati jaa rahi hai zindagi meri
na jaane zindagi meri
na jaane kyo badalati jaa rahi hai zindagi meri
na jaane zindagi meri
mai dil se bekhabar dil mujhse gaafil hota jaata hai
chaman me rah ke virana

ye ulajhan aur ye bechaini ye dhadakan aur ye betabi
ye dhadakan aur ye betabi
ye ulajhan aur ye bechaini ye dhadakan aur ye betabi
ye dhadakan aur ye betabi
mera dil jaane kin tiro se ghaayal hota jaata hai
chaman me rah ke virana mera dil hota jaata hai
khushi me aaj kal kuchh gam bhi shaamil hota jaata hai
chaman me rah ke virana

In gardens bright, my heart grows wild, a desert's call,
In gardens bright, my heart grows wild, a desert's call,
Joy's embrace, of late, with sorrow's shadow falls,
In gardens bright, my heart grows wild.

Why this shift, this twisting of my life's own thread?
Why this shift, this twisting?
Why this shift, this twisting of my life's own thread?
Why this shift, this twisting?
My heart, oblivious, while I, from it, am fled.

This tangle, this unrest, the pulse, the frantic beat,
This tangle, this unrest...
This tangle, this unrest, the pulse, the frantic beat,
This tangle, this unrest...
My heart, by unseen arrows, wounded, incomplete,
In gardens bright, my heart grows wild, a desert's call,
Joy's embrace, of late, with sorrow's shadow falls,
In gardens bright, my heart grows wild.
