Jaane vaalò zaraa

Jaane vaalò zaraa, muṛ ke dekho mujhe
Ek insaan hoo mai tumhaaree tarah
Jisane sabako rachaa, apane hee roop se
Uski pahachaan hoo mai tumhaaree tarah

Is anokhe jagat kee mai taqdeer hoo
Mai vidhaataa ke haatho kee tasaveer hoo
Ek tasaveer hoo
is jahaa ke liye, dhartee maa ke liye
Shiv kaa vardaan hoo, mai tumhaaree tarah

Man ke andar chhipaaye milan kee lagan
apane sooraj se hoo ek bichhadee kiran
ek bichhadee kiran
Phir rahaa hoo bhataktaa, mai yahaa se vahaa
Aur pareshaan hoo mai tumhaaree tarah

Mere paas aao chhoro yah saaraa bharam
Jo meraa dukh vahee hai tumhaaraa bhee gam
Hai tumhaaraa bhee gam
Dekhtaa hoo tumhe, jaantaa hoo tumhe
Laakh anjaan hoo mai tumhaaree tarah

O passers-by, take a moment. Look at me, I’m a human being like you, the one who created everyone with his own image, I am his sign like you. Take a moment…

Of this uncommon world, I’m the destiny, made by the creator’s hands, I’m a picture, For this world, for the mother-earth, I’m Shiva’s boon like you. Take a moment…

Concealing in the mind the urge to mingle, separated from my sun, I am a stray sunbeam, going about, wandering here and there, and I am bewildered like you. Take a moment…

Come with me, leave aside this illusion/doubt; My sorrow is your grief too, I see you, I know you yet I am naive, not knowing of millions, like you. Take a moment…
