Lyrics transliterated:

Zindagi; Kaisi Hai Paheli Haaye; Kabhi To Hasaaye Kabhi Yeh Rulaaye

Zindagi; Kaisi Hai Paheli Haaye; Kabhi To Hasaaye Kabhi Yeh Rulaaye

Kabhi Dekho Mann Nahi Jaage; Peechhe Peechhe Sapnon Ke Bhaage

Hey Hey, Kabhi Dekho Mann Nahi Jaage; Peechhe Peechhe Sapnon Ke Bhaage

Ek Din Sapnon Ka Raahi; Chala Jaaye Sapnon Ke Aage Kahaan

Zindagi; Kaisi Hai Paheli Haaye; Kabhi To Hasaaye Kabhi Yeh Rulaaye

Jinhone Sajaaye Yahaan Mele; Sukh-Dukh Sang-Sang Jhele

Hey Hey, Jinhone Sajaaye Yahaan Mele; Sukh-Dukh Sang-Sang Jhele

Wohi Chunkar Khamoshi; Yunhi Chala Jaayein Akele Kahaan

Zindagi; Kaisi Hai Paheli Haaye; Kabhi To Hasaaye Kabhi Yeh Rulaaye

Zindagi
