zalim jaha berang hai, jiwan tera ek jung hai
zalim jaha berang hai, jiwan tera ek jung hai

tan jakhmi hai jan hai baki, haye kitne arman hai baki
tan jakhmi hai jan hai baki, haye kitne arman hai baki
pathar jaha dil sang hai, jiwan tera ik jung hai
zalim jaha berang hai, jiwan tera ek jung hai

bandh kamar uth farz hai baki, tujhpe kisi ka karz hai baki
bandh kamar uth farz hai baki, tujhpe kisi ka karz hai baki
sukh dur hai dukh sang hai, jiwan tera ek jung hai
zalim jaha berang hai, jiwan tera ek jung hai

The world, a canvas drained of hue, your life, a battle anew.
The world, a canvas drained of hue, your life, a battle anew.

The body wounded, spirit lingers, oh, how many dreams still fingers?
The body wounded, spirit lingers, oh, how many dreams still fingers?
Where hearts are stone, the world's harsh sting, your life, a battle, everything.
The world, a canvas drained of hue, your life, a battle anew.

Gird your loins, arise, your duty calls, a debt unpaid, the spirit sprawls.
Gird your loins, arise, your duty calls, a debt unpaid, the spirit sprawls.
Joy departs, with sorrow's hold, your life, a battle to unfold.
The world, a canvas drained of hue, your life, a battle anew.
