chan ke aayi to kya chandni to mili
chan ke aayi to kya chandni to mili
chand din hi sahi ye kali to khili

sirf ik rang se tasveer hoti kahi
gham nahi to khushi ki keemat nahi
sirf ik rang se tasveer hoti kahi
gham nahi to khushi ki keemat nahi
dhup chao hai dono toh dilkash jaha
kya shikaayat kare, fursat kaha
shukriya zindagi, shukriya zindagi
shukriya zindagi, shukriya zindagi
teri meharbaniya teri meharbaniya
shukriya zindagi, shukriya zindagi
shukriya zindagi, shukriya zindagi

apni taqdeer ki hai yeh daastan
kabhi qatilana kabhi meharban
apni taqdeer ki hai ye dastan
kabhi qatilana kabhi meharban
meharbani jo dil ko karar aa gaya
apne qatil pe bhi pyar aa gaya
shukriya zindagi, shukriya zindagi
shukriya zindagi, shukriya zindagi
teri meharbaniya teri meharbaniya
shukriya zindagi, shukriya zindagi
shukriya zindagi, shukriya zindagi

Life, life, life,
Life, life, life,
If it came filtered, the moonlight I found,
If it came filtered, the moonlight I found,
A few days though, this blossom unfurled,
Thank you, life, thank you, life,
Thank you, life, thank you, life,
Your graces, your graces,
Thank you, life, thank you, life,
Thank you, life, thank you, life.

With a single hue, a picture unseen,
No sorrow, no joy's true sheen,
With a single hue, a picture unseen,
No sorrow, no joy's true sheen,
Sun and shadow, both make the world bright,
What complaints to voice, where's the light?
Thank you, life, thank you, life,
Thank you, life, thank you, life,
Your graces, your graces,
Thank you, life, thank you, life,
Thank you, life, thank you, life.

Our fate's own tale, a story it weaves,
Sometimes a killer, sometimes it believes,
Our fate's own tale, a story it weaves,
Sometimes a killer, sometimes it believes,
If kindness brings solace, peace in the core,
Love even the killer, forevermore,
Thank you, life, thank you, life,
Thank you, life, thank you, life,
Your graces, your graces,
Thank you, life, thank you, life,
Thank you, life, thank you, life.
