tune khud hi kiya hai khud pe baar haiwa banke
tere chahre pe laga hai ye kala rijhab banke
yadi tumko hi hai mitana ab ianshan banke
oye sathi, oye sathi
bas itna tum sochna
oye sathi, oye sathi
bas itna tum sochna
ek baar bike to, sau baar bikenge hum
ek baar bike to, sau baar bikenge hum
tum apni kimat ko khud jano
thoda sabar ya char din intezaar
tapti dhup ke baad, aati hai bahaar
tum dekhna, oye tum dekhna

oye sathi, oye sathi
bas itna tum sochna
oye sathi, oye sathi
bas itna tum sochna
ek baar jhuke to, sau baar jhukenge hum
ek baar jhuke to, sau baar jhukenge hum
tum apni himmat ko pahchano
koi bhi bahaar jeet, lo badh ke yaar
ek pakka irada, girade har diwar
tum dekhna, oye tum dekhna

oye sathi, oye sathi
bas itna tum sochna
oye sathi, oye sathi
bas itna tum sochna
ek baar dare to, sau baar darenge hum
ek baar dare to, sau baar darenge hum
tum apni takat ko khud mano
khatre ho hazar, piche na hato yaar
ek teri lalkar, gunjegi aarpar
tum dekhna, oye tum dekhna

oye sathi, oye sathi
bas itna tum sochna
ek baar bike to, sau baar bikenge hum
ek baar jhuke to, sau baar jhukenge hum
ek baar dare to, sau baar darenge hum
tum apni kimat ko khud jano
tum apni takat ko khud mano
tum apni himmat ko pahchano

You have aimed the arrow, a self-wounding plea,
Upon your own face, the stain, for all to see.
If, in this human form, you yearn to be free,
Oh friend, oh friend, ponder this decree.
Oh friend, oh friend, let this your compass be:

Once sold, a hundred times we’ll yield our soul,
Once sold, a hundred times we lose control.
Know well the worth that dwells within your core,
A little patience, wait for just a while more.
The sun's harsh blaze gives way to blossoming shore,
You'll see, oh yes, you will adore.

Oh friend, oh friend, ponder this decree.
Oh friend, oh friend, let this your compass be:
Once bowed, a hundred times we’ll bend the knee,
Once bowed, a hundred times eternally.
Embrace the courage that resides in you,
And seize the victory, come what may accrue.
With steadfast purpose, every wall subdue,
You'll see, oh yes, your dream will imbue.

Oh friend, oh friend, ponder this decree.
Oh friend, oh friend, let this your compass be:
Once feared, a hundred times the trembling plea,
Once feared, a hundred times, eternally.
Believe the strength that lies within your breast,
Though dangers gather, never yield or rest.
Your battle cry, a challenge unsurpassed,
You'll see, oh yes, your victory amassed.

Oh friend, oh friend, ponder this decree.
Once sold, a hundred times we’ll lose our hold,
Once bowed, a hundred times, we grow less bold,
Once feared, a hundred times, our spirits cold.
Know well the worth that dwells within your core,
Believe the strength that lies within you more,
Embrace the courage that you must explore.
