Hello,

I am trying to get the English translation to this song: “Jeevan Kya Hai” for my mother, as she loves this song very much.

I have tried on the net to find the english translation, but have not had any luck. If someone can help me to translate this into English, I would greatly appreciate this. Thank you.

Jeevan Kya Hai (lyrics)

jiivan kyaa hai chalataa phirataa ek khilonaa hai
do aaNkhon men ek se haNsanaa ek se ronaa hai

jo jii chaahe vo mil jaaye kab aisaa hotaa hai
har jiivan jiine kaa samajhautaa hai

raat aNdherii bhor suhaanii yahii zamaanaa hai
har chaadar men dukh kaa taanaa sukha kaa baanaa hai
aatii saaNs ko paanaa jaatii saaNs khonaa hai

Thanks again to anyone who can help me with this.

[Ek.Ajnaabi]

jiivan kyaa hai chalataa phirataa ek khilonaa hai
what is life, leaving and returning is like a toy
do aaNkhon men ek se haNsanaa ek se ronaa hai
in both of my eyes there is a laugh, and there is a cry

jo jii chaahe vo mil jaaye kab aisaa hotaa hai
ifso wanted so that it is met up with, then that must happen
har jiivan jiine kaa samajhautaa hai
every life lived must be understood

raat aNdherii bhor suhaanii yahii zamaanaa hai
the darkness of the night permeates into daybreak, how beautiful the world looks
har chaadar men dukh kaa taanaa sukha kaa baanaa hai
in every moment there is sadness pulling at it, yet I will make happiness

aatii saaNs ko paanaa jaatii saaNs khonaa hai
coming you will find a breath, leaving you will lose a breath
