mitti hi hai mitti mein hai shaamil, yahin hai saanson ki manjil
mitti hi hai mitti mein hai shaamil, yahin hai saanson ki manjil
haathon mein samay ke jivan hai khilauna
ek aankh hasana, ek aankh rona
mitti hi hai mitti mein hai shaamil, yahin hai saanson ki manjil

yeh dharati hai saraayi, ek aaye ek jaaye
uparwaala khel dikhaaye
uparwaala khel dikhaaye
mitti hi hai mitti mein hai shaamil, yahin hai saanson ki manjil

har maanav hai yahaan chhaaya
har maanav hai yahaan chhaaya
sab kuchh yahaan hai, paraaya
nashvar hi hai kaarvaan, nashvar hi hai kaarvaan
nashvar hi hai kaarvaan
nashvar hi hai kaarvaan, nashvar hi hai kaarvaan
nashvar hi hai kaarvaan

Dust we are, to dust we shall return, breath's final station,
Dust we are, to dust we shall return, breath's final station,
In time's hands, life, a fleeting toy,
One eye laughs, one weeps in its employ,
Dust we are, to dust we shall return, breath's final station.

This earth, a traveler's inn, where each arrives, departs,
The celestial player, art imparts,
The celestial player, art imparts,
Dust we are, to dust we shall return, breath's final station.

Each mortal, a fleeting shade,
Each mortal, a fleeting shade,
All things here, a borrowed parade,
Ephemeral the caravan, ephemeral the caravan,
Ephemeral the caravan,
Ephemeral the caravan, ephemeral the caravan,
Ephemeral the caravan.
