*Hindi*
En Barish ki boondo ko dekh,
Karte hai yeh bhi ishara ek,
Apne ghamo ko paani mein bahakar,
Aa bhula de beetey pal,
Apne ghamo se parey hokar,
Ess jeevan ko jile, chal!
En Balkhaati lehroon ko dekh,
Karti hai yeh bhi ishara ek,
Apne bhay ka kinara chodd kar,
Aa bann ja tu nidarr
Apne atma vishwaas se bhi
Ess Jeevan ki pareeksha mein paale naya starr.
En suraj ki kirno ko dekh,
Karte hai yeh bhi ishara ek,
Apne andhakar ko mitakar,
Aa dekh le ujala,
Apne ujale se bhi,
Ess sama ko ujjwal bana.
En Chamchamate taaron ko dekh,
Karte hai yeh bhi ishara ek,
Apne sapna ko sakaar kar,
Aa chuu le aasmaa,
Apne chamak se bhi,
Ess Sansaar ko tu aaj racha!

*English*
Look at the raindrops
they are giving you a sign
let your sadness flow away with the rain
forget the past
move ahead from the sorrow
come live this life.
Look at these dancing waves
they're also hinting at you
to leave the shore of your fears
and to become fearless
and with your self-belief
come achieve new heights in this exam of life.
Look at the sun rays
they're telling you
to shun the darkness within you
and to see the bright light
and asking you to brighten this world
with your inner light.
Look at the twinkling stars
they're hinting you
to achieve your dreams
and to touch the sky
and asking you to decorate this world
with your shine.
