rah pe rahte hai yado pe basar karte hai
khush raho ahale vatan ho ham to safar karte hai
rah pe rahte hai yado pe basar karte hai
khush raho ahale vatan ho ham to safar karte hai

jal gaye jo dhup me to saya ho gaye
jal gaye jo dhup me to saya ho gaye
aasaman ka koi kona le thoda so gaye
jo guzar jati hai bas uspe guzar karte hai
ho rah pe rahte hai yado pe basar karte hai
khush raho ahale vatan ho ham to safar karte hai

udate pairo ke tale jab bahti hai zamin
udate pairo ke tale jab bahti hai zamin
mudke hamne koi manzil dekhi hi nahi
raat din raaho pe ham shamo sahar karte hai
ho rah pe rahte hai yado pe basar karte hai
khush raho ahale vatan ho ham to safar karte hai

aise ujade ashiya me tinke ud gaye
ho aise ujade ashiya me tinke ud gaye
bastiyo tak aate aate raste mud gaye
ham thahar jaye jahan usko shahar kahte hai
ho raah pe rahte hai yado pe basar karte hai
khush raho ahale vatan ho ham to safar karte hai

We dwell on the road, sustenance of memory,
Farewell, beloved homeland, we, the journey.
We dwell on the road, sustenance of memory,
Farewell, beloved homeland, we, the journey.

Scorched by sun, shadows we became,
Scorched by sun, shadows we became,
In a corner of the sky, a little sleep we claim.
Upon the passing, our lives we spend,
Oh, we dwell on the road, sustenance of memory,
Farewell, beloved homeland, we, the journey.

Beneath our flying feet, the earth does flow,
Beneath our flying feet, the earth does flow,
Turning back, no destination did we know.
Night and day, on paths our vigil we keep,
Oh, we dwell on the road, sustenance of memory,
Farewell, beloved homeland, we, the journey.

In such ravaged nests, the straws took flight,
In such ravaged nests, the straws took flight,
Reaching towns, the paths changed their light.
Where we pause, we call it city's keep,
Oh, we dwell on the road, sustenance of memory,
Farewell, beloved homeland, we, the journey.
