jane ki kya hai jaldi jane ki kya hai jaldi
jana chle bhi jana jana chle bhi jana
sun lo jo sun sako tum
sun lo jo sun sako tum
is dard ka fasana is dard ka fasana

jab the bahar ke din jhule pade huye the
fulo ki patiyo par moti jale huye the
fula fala tha mera chhota sa aashiyana
fula fala tha mera chhota sa aashiyana
sun lo jo sun sako tum ek dard ka fasana
jane ki kya hai jaldi
jana chle bhi jana jana bhi chle jana

friyad kiye hai jag me ab kaid kar chuka hai
bulbul ude to kaise wo par katar chuka hai
aankho me fir rha hai gujara hua jamana
aankho me fir rha hai gujara hua jamana
sun lo jo sun sako tum ek dard ka fasana
jane ki kya hai jaldi
jana chle bhi jana jana chle bhi jana

aansu jo bah rahe hai hai dekhne me pani
darbar se tatola har ashk hai kahani
matam hai jindagi ka samjhe ho tum tarana
matam hai jindagi ka samjhe ho tum tarana
sun lo jo sun sako tum ek dard ka fasana
jane ki kya jaldi hai
jana chle bhi jana jana chle bhi jana
jane ki kya jaldi hai

Why the haste to depart?
Why this rush to be gone?
Go, if you must, go;
but linger and listen.
Hear, if you can,
the tale of this pain,
this aching story.

When spring's days bloomed,
swings swayed gently,
pearls adorning petals.
My small home flourished,
bloomed with life.
Hear, if you can,
the tale of this pain.
Why the haste to depart?
Go, if you must, go;
but linger and listen.

The world now cages cries,
the nightingale's wings clipped.
Memories of the past
dance in my eyes.
Hear, if you can,
the tale of this pain.
Why the haste to depart?
Go, if you must, go;
but linger and listen.

The tears that fall, mere water to the eye,
each drop a story, a universe explored.
Mourning is life, yet you hear it as a song.
Mourning is life, yet you hear it as a song.
Hear, if you can,
the tale of this pain.
Why the haste to depart?
Go, if you must, go;
but linger and listen.
Why the haste to depart?
