jaate jaate vo mujhe achchhi nishaani de gayaa
umr bhar dohraaoongaa aisi kahaani de gayaa
jaate jaate vo mujhe achchhi nishaani de gayaa

us se main kuchh paa saku aisi kahaan ummeed thi

gham bhi vo shaayad baraaye meharbaani de gayaa
gham bhi vo shaayad baraaye meharbaani de gayaa
umr bhar dohraaoongaa aisi kahaani de gayaa
jaate jaate vo mujhe achchhi nishaani de gayaa

sab havaayen le gayaa mere samandar ki koi
sab havaayen le gayaa mere samandar ki koi
aur mujhko ek kashti baadbaani de gayaa
aur mujhko ek kashti baadbaani de gayaa
umr bhar dohraaoongaa aisi kahaani de gayaa
jaate jaate vo mujhe achchhi nishaani de gayaa

khair main pyaasaa rahaa par usne itnaa to kiyaa

meri palkon ki qataaron ko vo paani de gayaa
meri palkon ki qataaron ko vo paani de gayaa
umr bhar dohraaoongaa aisi kahaani de gayaa
jaate jaate vo mujhe achchhi nishaani de gayaa

All breezes he stole from my ocean's heart,
Yet, a ship and a sail, a brand new start,
Yet, a ship and a sail, a brand new start,
A tale for a lifetime, a story to save.
As he departed, a sweet mark he gave.

Thirsty I stayed, yet this act he blessed,
Thirsty I stayed, yet this act he blessed,
To my tear-filled eyes, water he pressed,

A tale for a lifetime, a story to save.
As he departed, a sweet mark he gave.
