ghar me lagi jo aag vo bujh gayi, jalti rahi teri kaya
bachapan me hua ghar se beghar aaj talak na bas paya
ghar me lagi jo aag vo bujh gayi, jalti rahi teri kaya
biti baate bisar
biti baate bisar aisa koi nahi jo na ho gam se bezar
himmat na har, chal chala chal akela chal chala chal
akela chal chala chal fakira chal chala chal

jisne liya sankalp sabhi ke dukh aur dard mitane ka
uspe hansa jag usne kabhi na paya sath zamane ka
jisne liya sankalp sabhi ke dukh aur dard mitane ka
uspe hansa jag usne kabhi na paya sath zamane ka
le le auro ka bhar

himmat na har, chal chala chal akela chal chala chal
akela chal chala chal fakira chal chala chal

Go wander alone, oh, wanderer, go
Hearkening to your call, none may be ready to go
Do not yield, go forth, go on alone, go on
Alone, go on, wanderer, go on
Hearkening to your call, none may be ready to go
Do not yield, go forth, go on alone, go on
Alone, go on, wanderer, go on

Cast out of home in youth, never settled to this day
The fire that scorched the house, it died, your being burned away
Cast out of home in youth, never settled to this day
The fire that scorched the house, it died, your being burned away
Forget bygone days
Forget bygone days, none are untouched by sorrow’s maze
Do not yield, go forth, go on alone, go on
Alone, go on, wanderer, go on

He who vowed to heal all woes and pains of all
The world mocked him, he never found the world’s call
He who vowed to heal all woes and pains of all
The world mocked him, he never found the world’s call
Carry the burdens of others
Carry the burdens of others, those who have none, let their lives be restored
Do not yield, go forth, go on alone, go on
Alone, go on, wanderer, go on

Sun, moon, stars, fireflies, each has its own form
The cloud that holds the waters, rains for a certain storm
Sun, moon, stars, fireflies, each has its own form
The cloud that holds the waters, rains for a certain storm
Your power is boundless
Your power is boundless, you brought the Ganga down to earth alone
Do not yield, go forth, go on alone, go on
Alone, go on, wanderer, go on
Hearkening to your call, none may be ready to go
Do not yield, go forth, go on alone, go on
Alone, go on, wanderer, go on
