badi muddat ke bad ho badi muddat ke bad
badi muddat ke bad aaj wo mahfil me fir aaye
wo fir aaye badi muddat ke bad
jawani ke hasi lamhat jaise laut kar aaye
wo fir aaye badi muddat ke bad
wo leke aa gaye gujri baharo ko bhi sath apne
wo leke aa gaye gujri baharo ko bhi sath apne
fir humne jindagi dekhi thi humko wo najar aaye
wo fir aaye badi muddat ke bad
ho o badi muddat ke bad

humari maut se pahle wo milne aa gaye humse
humari maut se pahle wo milne aa gaye humse
shabab aaya gulo par aaj hajaro rang bhar aaye
wo fir aaye badi muddat ke bad
ho o badi muddat ke bad

lo machle dil me fir jajbat aur shahnaiya gunji
lo machle dil me fir jajbat aur shahnaiya gunji
ye kya kam khush nashibi hai wo bhule se idhar aaye
wo fir aaye badi muddat ke bad
ho o badi muddat ke bad
aaj wo mahfil me fir aaye
wo fir aaye badi muddat ke bad

After an age, after a lifetime's wait,
In the gathering, they appeared again,
After an age, their return.
Moments of youth, laughter's echo,
Returned with them, again and again,
After an age, their return.
They brought with them the springs that passed,
They brought with them the springs that passed,
And life itself, we saw them and it bloomed anew,
After an age, their return.
Oh, after an age.

Before our death, they came to meet us,
Before our death, they came to meet us,
Youth returned, a thousand colors bloomed on flowers,
After an age, their return.
Oh, after an age.

The heart stirred, emotions surged, and shehnai's song,
The heart stirred, emotions surged, and shehnai's song,
A stroke of fortune that they came this way, by chance,
After an age, their return.
Oh, after an age.
In the gathering, they appeared again,
After an age, their return.
