hanste hanste log , lagte hai rone
ruth jate hai jab sapne salone ,
toot jate hai jab khilaune
hanste hanste log , lagte hai rone
ruth jate hai jab sapne salone ,
toot jate hai jab khilaune
huste huste log

mera bhi sapan salana toot gya bin khele hi khilauna
toot gya mera bhi sapan salana toot gya bin khele hi khilauna
toot gya
lagta hai gum nain bhigone
hanste hanste log , lagte hai rone
ruth jate hai jab sapne salone ,
toot jate hai jab khilaune
hanste hanste log

tinke ka bhi sahara , jab na mile toofano me kinara
jab na mile
tinke ka bhi sahara , jab na mile toofano me kinara
jab na mile
lagte hai majhi naav dubone
hanste hanste log

Smiling faces, a sudden cry,
When cherished dreams begin to die,
And fragile toys are left to lie,
Smiling faces, a sudden cry.
When cherished dreams begin to die,
And fragile toys are left to lie,
Smiling faces...

My own sweet dream, now torn apart,
A toy untouched, a broken heart,
My own sweet dream, now torn apart,
A toy untouched, a broken heart,
Tears well up, a lonely start,
Smiling faces, a sudden cry.
When cherished dreams begin to die,
And fragile toys are left to lie,
Smiling faces...

Even straws, no hand to hold,
When storms rage, and hope turns cold,
Even straws, no hand to hold,
When storms rage, and hope turns cold,
The ferryman seems to drown the soul.
Smiling faces...
