sun le meri kahani
sun le meri kahani, ujadi hui jawani
ujadi hui jawani
aye aasma ke tare
aye aasma ke tare, majbur ke sahare
sunle meri kahani

jabse jaha me aaye
dukh dard sath laye
jabse jaha me aaye
dukh dard sath laye
din zindagi ke rokar
din zindagi ke rokar, humne yaha gujare

takdir ka tamasha, aasha hui nirasha
aur dubi hamari naiya, jab naav lagi kinare
sunle meri kahani, ujadi hui jawani
aye aasma ke tare, majbur ke sahare
sun le meri kahani

ye tamanna hai bichadne wale
tu salamat rahe aabad rahe
jindagi jaise kate kat jaye
har ghadi dil me teri yaad rahe
din rat tu hi tu hai
bechain aarzu hai
aankho se bah rahi hai
in aasuo ke dhare
sun le meri kahani

Hearken now, my tale,
A youth now desolate and frail,
A youth now desolate.
O stars that pierce the night,
O stars, the burdened's guiding light,
Hearken now, my tale.

From birth, this world we greet,
With sorrows that we meet,
From birth, this world we greet.
With tears, our days unfold,
With tears, our story told,
The days we meet.

Fate's cruel, a mocking show,
Hope turned to depths of woe,
Our vessel sank, the shore in sight,
Hearken now, my tale,
A youth now desolate and frail,
O stars, the burdened's guiding light,
Hearken now, my tale.

My wish for you, who must depart,
To thrive, with wholeness in your heart,
May life unfold, as it may be,
And in my heart, your memory,
In every breath, in every beat,
Your presence, bittersweet,
From eyes, a river flows,
In tears the sorrow grows,
Hearken now, my tale.
