aa jara aaj to aa jara aaj to muskura le
ye hansi ye khushi do ghadi hai janeman bas yahi zindagi hai

aaj to haale dil par koi
pyar ki raagini chhed de
ye jahan ye sama kal yaha
jaaneman phir mile naa mile ha
aa jara aaj to aa jara aaj to muskura le
ye hansi ye khushi do ghadi hai
jaaneman bas yahi zindagi hai ha

bekhudi me jo ho khata
aaj sab ke lie wo maff hai
gam nahi hai kisi bat ka
dil agar aapka saf hai
aa jara aaj to muskura le
ye hansi ye khushi do ghadi hai
jaaneman bas yahi zindagi hai ha

le utha haath me jhaap le
jaam aa dhoke hai thaam le
aur bhi aur bhi dilruba hosh ka
aaj mat naam le
aa jara aaj to aa jara aaj to muskura le
ye hansi ye khushi do ghadi hai
jaaneman bas yahi zindagi hai ha

Come, just this once, come, just this once, and smile,
This laughter, this joy, a fleeting moment, beloved, this is life.

Today, let your heart’s state be,
And play the melody of love.
This world, this atmosphere, tomorrow here,
Beloved, may or may not meet again.
Come, just this once, come, and smile,
This laughter, this joy, a fleeting moment,
Beloved, this is life.

Whatever mistakes are made in ecstasy,
Today, all are forgiven.
No sorrow for anything,
If your heart is pure.
Come, just this once, come, and smile,
This laughter, this joy, a fleeting moment,
Beloved, this is life.

Raise your hand and hold the cup,
Don’t speak of consciousness today.
Come, just this once, come, and smile,
This laughter, this joy, a fleeting moment,
Beloved, this is life.
