tu jahaan jahaan chalegaa, meraa saayaa, saath hogaa
meraa saayaa, meraa saayaa

kabhi mujhako yaad karake, jo bahege tere aansu
to vahi pe rok lege, unhe aake mere aansu
tu jidhar kaa rukh karegaa, meraa saayaa, saath hogaa

tu agar udaas hogaa, to udaas hugi mai bhi
nazar aaun yaa naa aaun, tere paas hugi mai bhi
tu kahi bhi jaa rahegaa, meraa saayaa, saath hogaa

mai agar bichhad bhi jaaun, kabhi meraa gam na karanaa
meraa pyaar yaad karake, kabhi aankh nam na karanaa
tu jo mudake dekh legaa, meraa saayaa, saath hogaa

meraa gam rahaa hai shaamil, tere dukh me, tere gam me
mere pyaar ne diyaa hai, teraa saath har janam me
tu koi janam bhi legaa, meraa saayaa saath hogaa

Where your foot falls, my shadow walks,
My shadow, ever near.

If tears should fall, remembering me,
My own tears rise to meet them,
Wherever you may wander, my shadow walks.

If sadness claims you, I too will weep,
Seen or unseen, beside you I will keep,
Wherever you reside, my shadow walks.

If I should fade, do not grieve my loss,
Recall my love, let no tear cross,
If you look back, my shadow walks.

My sorrow has mingled with your pain,
My love has walked beside you, again and again,
Through any life you take, my shadow walks.
