janam-janam kaa dukhiyaa praani
janam-janam kaa dukhiyaa praani
aayaa sharan tihaari
aayaa sharan tihaari
bhagvan, aayaa mai aayaa

kadam-kadam par ghor musibat
kadam-kadam par ghor musibat
sar pe vipdaa bhaari
janam-janam kaa dukhiyaa praani
aayaa sharan tihaari
aayaa sharan tihaari
bhagvan, aayaa mai aayaa

bichhi hai chaaro or se aansu
bichhi hai chaaro or se aansu
bujhe na dipak meraa
meraa jivan ik deeya me
meraa jivan ik deeya me
chhaa na jaaye andhera
chhaa na jaaye andhera
tej hawa se ise bachaa ke
tej hawa se ise bachaa ke, karna ab rakhvaari
janam-janam kaa dukhiyaa praani
aayaa sharan tihaari
aayaa sharan tihaari
bhagvan, aayaa mai aayaa

soi hui, soi hui jwalaa ko jagaa do
baaki jag ko aag lagaa do
jale hue mere man ki aasha
bhagvan aas tumhaari
aaya sharan tihaari
bhagvan, aayaa mai aayaa
janam-janam kaa dukhiyaa praani
aayaa sharan tihaari
aaya sharan tihaari
bhagvan, aayaa mai aayaa

Born a sorrow, life on life,
Born a sorrow, life on life,
I come, to your embrace,
I come, to your embrace,
Oh Lord, I come, I come.

At every step, a crushing plight,
At every step, a crushing plight,
A burden on my brow,
Born a sorrow, life on life,
I come, to your embrace,
I come, to your embrace,
Oh Lord, I come, I come.

Tears surround on every side,
Tears surround on every side,
My lamp, it cannot cease.
In the lone lamp of my life,
In the lone lamp of my life,
Let darkness never creep,
Let darkness never creep.
Guard it now, from the fierce winds,
Guard it now, with all your care,
Born a sorrow, life on life,
I come, to your embrace,
I come, to your embrace,
Oh Lord, I come, I come.

Awaken, awaken the sleeping fire,
Set the world ablaze,
Of my scorched heart's yearning,
Lord, your hope I crave,
I come, to your embrace,
Oh Lord, I come, I come.
Born a sorrow, life on life,
I come, to your embrace,
I come, to your embrace,
Oh Lord, I come, I come.
