matavale ham matavale tum chalate rahe yun hi qadam
dilavale ham dilavale tum badhate rahe yun hi qadam
matavale ham
auro ke kam a ja hil-mil ke jhelata ja mushkil jo raho me hai
matavala jam hai masti se kam hai masti nigaho me hai
dil jab dole machal-machal ke phir kya chalana sambhal-sambhal ke
dil hai javan kahe ka gam matavale ham

sare ragi nazare apane dam se hai pyare hamako nazaro se kya
har dil ke pyar ham sabaki bahar ham ham ko baharo se kya
sabase naina mila-mila ke dil ki kaliyan khila-khila ke
chalate chale lahara ke ham matavale ham

kaisa jina akele gairo ka dard le le apana to kam yahi
apana to sin yahi apana to din yahi apani to sham yahi
girate jan ko utha-utha ke har rote ko hansa-hansa ke
gaye ja tu jab-tak hai dam
matavale ham

We, the intoxicated, you the intoxicated, steps we take together,
We, the hearts, you the hearts, onward we climb together,
We the intoxicated.

To serve others, unite, embrace the trials along the path,
Intoxication is the wine, joy is the work, joy in our gaze.
When the heart dances, swaying and swaying, why walk with such caution?
Youthful is the heart, why the sorrow? We the intoxicated.

All the vibrant sights are by our own power, dear to us, what need have we of sights?
Love of every heart, joy of all, what need have we of joy?
Meeting eyes with all, blossoming the flowers of hearts,
We walk on, swaying, we the intoxicated.

What is life alone? Take the pain of others, this is our work,
This our sin, this our day, this our evening.
Lifting up those who stumble, making every weeping one laugh,
Sing on till your last breath,
We the intoxicated.
