karu kya aas nirash bhayi
karu kya aas nirash bhayi
karu kya aas nirash bhayi
karu kya aas nirash bhayi
deeya bujhe phir se jal jaye
raat andheri jaye din aaye
deeya bujhe phir se jal jaye
raat andheri jaye din aaye
mitthi aas hai jyot akhiyan ki
mitthi aas hai jyot akhiyan ki
samjh gayi to gayi
karu kya aas nirash bhayi
karu kya aas nirash bhayi
karu kya aas nirash bhayi

jab na kisi ne raah sujhai
dil se ek aawaz ye aayi
jab na kisi ne raah sujhai
dil se ek aawaz ye aayi
himmat baandh sambhal badh aage
rok nahi hai koi
himmat baandh sambhal badh aage
rok nahi hai koi
kaho na aas nirash bhayi
kaho na aas nirash bhayi

karna hoga khun ka pani
dena hogi har kurbani
himmat hai itni to samjh le
himmat hai itni to samjh le
aas bandhegi nayi
aas bandhegi nayi
kaho na aas nirash bhayi
kaho na aas nirash bhayi
kaho na aas nirash bhayi

What hope, now despair embraces,
What hope, now despair embraces,
What hope, now despair embraces,
What hope, now despair embraces.
The lamp extinguished, rekindled anew,
Darkest night yields to the dawn's hue.
The lamp extinguished, rekindled anew,
Darkest night yields to the dawn's hue.
Fading hope in the eyes' ember,
Fading hope in the eyes' ember,
Understand, then depart,
What hope, now despair embraces,
What hope, now despair embraces,
What hope, now despair embraces.

When no path is revealed,
A voice within heart is revealed,
When no path is revealed,
A voice within heart is revealed,
Gather courage, rise and advance,
No one can stop you.
Gather courage, rise and advance,
No one can stop you.
Say not that hope despair embraces,
Say not that hope despair embraces.

You must water with your own blood,
You must offer every sacrifice,
If you possess such courage, understand,
If you possess such courage, understand,
New hope will bind,
New hope will bind.
Say not that hope despair embraces,
Say not that hope despair embraces,
Say not that hope despair embraces.
