Lyrics transliterated:

Zindagi Ke Safar Mein Guzar Jaate Hain Jo Makaam

Woh Phir Nahin Aate; Woh Phir Nahin Aate

Zindagi Ke Safar Mein Guzar Jaate Hain Jo Makaam

Woh Phir Nahin Aate; Woh Phir Nahin Aate

Phool Khilte Hain Log Milte Hain; Phool Khilte Hain Log Milte Hain Magar

Pattajhad Mein Jo Phool Murjha Jaate Hain; Woh Baharon Ke Aane Se Khilte Nahi

Kuchh Log Ik Roz Jo Bichhad Jaate Hain; Woh Hazaron Ke Aane Se Milte Nahi

Umr Bhar Chaahe Koi Pukaara Kare Unakaa Naam

Woh Phir Nahin Aate; Woh Phir Nahin Aate

Aankh Dhokha Hai Kya Bharosaa Hai; Aankh Dhokha Hai Kya Bharosaa Hai suno

Doston Shaq Dosti Ka Dushman Hai; Apane Dil Men Ise Ghar Banaane Na Do

Kal Tadapanaa Pade Yaad Men Jin Ki; Rok Lo Rooth Kar Unako Jaane Naa Do

Baad Mein Pyaar Ke Chaahe Bhejo Hazaaron Salaam

Woh Phir Nahin Aate; Woh Phir Nahin Aate

Subah Aati Hai Raat Jaati Hai; Subah Aati Hai Raat Jaati Hai Yunhi

Waqt Chalta Hi Rehta Hai Rukta Nahi; Ek Pal Mein Ye Aage Nikal Jata Hai

Aadami Thik Se Dekh Pata Nahin; Aur Parde Pe Manzar Badal Jata Hai

Ek Baar Chale Jate Hain Jo Din-Raat Jo Makaam

Woh Woh Phir Nahin Aate; Woh Phir Nahin Aate

Zindagi Ke Safar Mein; Guzar Jaate Hain Jo Makam

Woh Phir Nahin Aate; Woh Phir Nahin Aate.
