o tere saath saath meri duniyaa bhi jaa rahi hai
jo chhup rahaa hai, gam ki ab shaam aa rahi hai
chalaa hai pyaar kaa raahi o nadiyaa, raasataa denaa
o nadiyaa, raasataa denaa
kisi tute hue dil ki, ari laharo, duaa lenaa
ari laharo, duaa lenaa

bigad jaaegaa kyaa teraa are tufaan, zaraa tham jaa
musaafir paar utar jaae are paani, zaraa jam jaa
bigad jaaegaa kyaa teraa are tufaan, zaraa tham jaa
musaafir paar utar jaae are paani, zaraa jam jaa

kahi meri muhabbat ko na duniyaa se uthaa lenaa
na duniyaa se uthaa lenaa
chalaa hai pyaar kaa raahi o nadiyaa, raasataa denaa

kisiki zindagi me khel kar ai maut, kyaa legi
bataa kyaa chaar din ke pyaar ko furasat nahi degi
lahu ki pyaas meri jaan lekar tu bujhaa lenaa
o nadiyaa, raasataa denaa
chalaa hai pyaar kaa raahi o nadiyaa, raasataa denaa
o nadiyaa, raasataa denaa

With you, my world unravels, slips away,
And silence, a sorrow, begins its sway.
Love's traveler treads, O river, yield your ground,
O river, grant passage all around.
From a shattered heart, waves, accept this plea,
O waves, receive this prayer from me.

Why rage, tempest, what is there to gain?
Be still, so the traveler may safely attain.
Why rage, tempest, what is there to gain?
Be still, so the traveler may safely attain.

Do not tear my love from this earthly sphere,
From this world, keep it ever near.
Love's traveler treads, O river, yield your ground.

Death, having played within another's life, what price will you claim?
Tell me, will four days of love not find reprieve from pain?
Quench your thirst with my life, if you must,
O river, grant passage, I implore and trust.
Love's traveler treads, O river, yield your ground,
O river, grant passage all around.
