ye hai meri jindagi bansuri ye bansuri nahi bansuri

This flute, it is not just a flute, it is my life,
This flute, it is not just a flute, it is my life,
It is my life.

May it never turn away, may it never be lost,
May it never turn away, may it never be lost,
But if it breaks, I care not for anything else,
It is my life, it is my life.

The village fair swells, the crowd surges,
But I, alone, remain, no letter ever came for me,
It is my life, it is my life.

No heart, no desires, no home, no possessions,
No heart, no desires, no home, no possessions,
This is my identity, the village girls call me mad,
It is my life,
It is my life, this flute, it is not just a flute.
