ik banjara ik tare par kab se gave
jivan hai ik dor dor uljhe hi jave
aasani se girahe khulati nahi hai
mann wo hathila hai jo phir bhi suljhave
raahi ka to kaam hai chalta hi jave
saiyan ve saiyan ve sun sun saiyan ve
saiyan ve saiyan ve

tinka tinka chidiya laave, aise apna ghar wo banave
jarra jarra tu bhi jodke ik khironda bana
bund bund hai banta sagar, dhaga dhaga banati chadar
dheere dheere yu hi tu bhi apna jivan saja
sichata hai yahaa jo bagiya ko wahi phul bhi pave
raahi ka to kaam hai chalta hi jave
saiyan ve saiyan ve sun sun saiyan ve
saiyan ve saiyan ve

din hai parvat jaise bhari, raate bojhal bojhal saari
tu ye sochta hai rah kaise aasaan ho
saari anjani hai rahe, jinme dhunde teri nigahe
koi aisa pal aaj ya kal meherban ho
ghume kabse dagar dagar, tu man ko ye samajhave
raahi ka to kaam hai chalta hi jave
saiyan ve saiyan ve saiyan saiyan ve
saiyan ve saiyan ve

ik banjaara ik tare par kab se gave
jivan hai ik dor dor uljhe hi jave
aasaani se girahe khulati nahi hai
mann wo hathila hai jo phir bhi suljhave
raahi ka to kaam hai chalta hi jave
saiyan ve saiyan ve sun sun saiyan ve
saiyan ve saiyan ve

A nomad sings to a star, since time began,
Life's a thread, knotted, a tangled plan.
Knots don't loosen with a gentle hand,
A stubborn heart keeps trying, to understand.
The traveler's task: onward, across the land,
Saiyan Ve, Saiyan Ve, listen, Saiyan Ve,
Saiyan Ve, Saiyan Ve.

A bird gathers straw by straw, its home to make,
Grain by grain, build your own small lake.
Drop by drop, the ocean's waking, thread by thread, a cover you take,
Slowly, surely, your life you'll make.
He who waters the garden, will the flowers take,
The traveler's task: onward, across the land,
Saiyan Ve, Saiyan Ve, listen, Saiyan Ve,
Saiyan Ve, Saiyan Ve.

Days like mountains, heavy and tall,
Nights laden, a burdensome sprawl.
You wonder how the path will softly fall,
All roads unknown, where your eyes call.
A moment of grace, today or tomorrow, for all,
Turn this mind, you'll reach the wall,
The traveler's task: onward, across the land,
Saiyan Ve, Saiyan Ve, listen, Saiyan Ve,
Saiyan Ve, Saiyan Ve.
