Chorus: AAAAAA~~~~AAAAAA~~~


naa taaj-e-shaahee, naa baadshaahee,
NO ROYAL CROWN, NO KINGDOM,


naa shaano shaukat, rahegee baaqee,
NO POMP AND SPLENDOUR WILL LAST,


tamaam hogaa, har ik fasaanaa,
EVERY STORY WILL COME TO AN END,


magar mohabbat, rahegee baaqee,
BUT LOVE WILL ENDURE,


Chorus: AAAAA~~~~AAAAA~~~


naa muskuraaye.nge phool kaliyaa.n,
NO FLOWERS AND BUDS WILL SMILE,


naa gaaye.ngee bulbule, taraanaa,
NO NIGHTINGALE WILL SING SONGS,


chaman rahegaa, naa aashiyaanaa,
NO GARDEN NOR THE COSY RETREAT WILL REMAIN,


magar mohabbat, rahegee baaqee,
BUT LOVE WILL ENDURE!


Chorus: AAAAA~~~~


naa zindagee kaa~~~~, nishaa.n rahegaa,
NO TRACE OF LIFE WILL REMAIN,


Chorus: AAA~~~~


naa yeh zamee.n aasmaa.n rahegaa,
NEITHER THE EARTH NOR THE SKY WILL REMAIN,


Chorus: AAA~~~~


rahegee har shay, yoo.n hee, rawaanaa,
EVERYTHING WILL THUS DEPART,


magar mohabbat rahegee baaqee.
BUT LOVE WILL ENDURE.


Chorus: AAA~~~~
