mai hu teri chaya
tere bina mera naam na koi
mai hu teri chaya
tere bina mera naam na koi
mai hu teri chaya

janam janam ka tu mera sathi
kya tha yaha mera mai kyu aadhi
jag me tera pyar mujhe le aaya
mai hu teri chaya
tere bina mera naam na koi
mai hu teri chaya

tere bina mera jivan pyasa
badal bina jaise pawan pyasa
jalte jalte kali ho gayi kaya
mai hu teri chaya
tere bina mera naam na koi
mai hu teri chaya

I am your shadow, ever near,
Without you, I am nothing here.
I am your shadow, softly cast,
Without you, my name fades fast.
I am your shadow, holding fast.

Through lifetimes, you, my constant guide,
What was mine? Why did I hide?
Your love, a beacon, brought me near,
I am your shadow, banishing fear,
Without you, my name disappears.
I am your shadow, year by year.

Without you, life, a thirsty plea,
Like wind that seeks the boundless sea.
Burning, burning, blackened now,
I am your shadow, taking the vow,
Without you, my name cannot bow,
I am your shadow, here and now.
