dukh sukh mere tere hawale o mere ghansham
dukh sukh mere tere hawale o mere ghansham
o mere sham o ghansham
o mere sham o ghansham
dukh sukh mere tere hawale o mere ghansham

tu hi nadiya tu hi naiya tu hi meri patwar
tere sahare kat jayenge jivan ke din char
mere liye to jo kuch bhi hai bas tera ek naam
o mere ghansham
dukh sukh mere tere hawale o mere ghansham

tune banaya tune dikhya mujhko ye sansar
janam maran sab hath hai tere o mere kartar
saachi rah batana tera chalna mera kaam
o mere ghansham
dukh sukh mere tere hawale o mere ghansham

My sorrow, my joy, to you I commend, O dark-hued one,
My sorrow, my joy, to you I commend, O dark-hued one,
O my Shyam, O dark-hued one,
O my Shyam, O dark-hued one,
My sorrow, my joy, to you I commend, O dark-hued one.

You the river, you the vessel, you my guiding oar,
By your grace will fade the days, life's journey to explore.
For me, all that is, is but your single name,
O dark-hued one,
My sorrow, my joy, to you I commend, O dark-hued one.

You revealed, you unveiled this world before my eyes,
Birth and death, all in your hands, O my creator wise.
To show the path of truth, my task to simply tread,
O dark-hued one,
My sorrow, my joy, to you I commend, O dark-hued one.
