zindagi jindadili ka nam hai
zindagi jindadili ka nam hai
zindagi jindadili ka nam hai
zindagi jindadili ka nam hai
hanskar har mushkil apna dunia ka yahi wasul
khilkar jab tak kali hanse na tab tak bane na phul
hanste chehre ke sab sathi rone ko sath na koi
hansne wala bane sitara roye to paw ki dhul
zindagi jindadili ka nam hai
zindagi jindadili ka nam hai

ek din maut aayegi sabko aaj nahi to kal hai
kisi ki khatir mar jana ye bat badi muskil hai
sadiyo tak wo rahega amar jo oro par hua nichawar
mar kar bhi jinda rahta hai wo hi to jindadil hai kyonki
zindagi jindadili ka nam hai
zindagi jindadili ka nam hai

Life is the laughter of the soul,
Life is the laughter of the soul,
Life is the laughter of the soul,
Life is the laughter of the soul.
Embrace each hardship with a smile, the world's ancient decree,
The bloom remains unborn until the bud finds glee.
With laughter's face, companions abound, no shoulder for tears to fall,
The laughing spirit ascends to starlight, while weeping mingles with dust.
Life is the laughter of the soul,
Life is the laughter of the soul.

Death shall come for all, tomorrow or the next,
To die for another, a deed most complex.
He who sacrifices, shall live through ages untold,
Even in death, the life-filled spirit, forever bold.
Life is the laughter of the soul,
Life is the laughter of the soul.
