oohoh o nadiya chale chale re dhara
oohoh o nadiya chale chale re dharaa
chanda chale chale re tara
tujhako chalana hoga, tujhako chalana hoga
tujhako chalana hoga, tujhako chalana hoga
oohoh

jivan kahi bhi thaharata nahi hai
jivan kahi bhi thaharata nahi hai
aandhi se tupha se darata nahi hai
tu na chalega to chal degi raahe
hai re hai re hai re hai re
o tu na chalega to chal degi raahe
mazil ko tarasegi teri nigaahe
tujhako chalana hoga, tujhako chalana hoga
tujhako chalana hoga, tujhako chalana hoga
o nadiya chale chale re dhara
chanda chale chale re tara
tujhako chalana hoga, tujhako chalana hoga
tujhako chalana hoga, tujhako chalana hoga
o o o o o o

par hua vo raha vo safar me
o par hua vo rahaa vo safar me
jo bhi ruka phir gayaa vo bhavar me
nav to kya baha jaye kinara
o naav to kya baha jaye kinara
badi hi tez samay ki hai dhaaraa
tujhako chalana hoga, tujhako chalana hoga
tujhako chalana hoga, tujhako chalana hoga
oh nadiya chale chale re dhara
chanda chale chale re tara
tujhako chalana hoga, tujhako chalana hoga
tujhako chalana hoga, tujhako chalana hoga
oohohoh

Oh-ho-ho, the river flows, the current surges,
Oh-ho-ho, the river flows, the current surges,
The moon journeys, the stars migrate,
You must journey onward, you must journey onward,
You must journey onward, you must journey onward,
Oh-ho-ho.

Life finds no stillness, no resting place,
Life finds no stillness, no resting place,
Fears not the tempest, nor the raging storm,
If you falter, the paths will move ahead,
Hey, hey, hey, hey,
Oh, if you falter, the paths will move ahead,
Your gaze will yearn for the distant shore,
You must journey onward, you must journey onward,
You must journey onward, you must journey onward,
Oh, the river flows, the current surges,
The moon journeys, the stars migrate,
You must journey onward, you must journey onward,
You must journey onward, you must journey onward,
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

Across the other shore, he lingered in transit,
Oh, across the other shore, he lingered in transit,
Whoever paused, was lost in the whirlpool's hold,
Not just the boat, but the shores may be swept away,
Oh, not just the boat, but the shores may be swept away,
So swift is the flow, the current of time,
You must journey onward, you must journey onward,
You must journey onward, you must journey onward,
Oh, the river flows, the current surges,
The moon journeys, the stars migrate,
You must journey onward, you must journey onward,
You must journey onward, you must journey onward,
Oh-ho-ho-oh.
