Lyrics of Ab Tumhi Kaho Kyaa Karna - जब दुःख की नदिया में हमने
jab dukh ki nadiya me hamne
jivan ki naav dali thi
haa kitna kasbar baaho me
lahu me kitni lali thi
yu lagta tha do hath lage
aur naav puram paar lagi
aisa na hua har dhare me
kuch andekhi majhdhare thi
kuch maajhi the anjaan bahut
kuch beparkhi patware thi
ab jo bhi chaho chhan karo
ab jo bhi chaho chhan karo
ab jitna chaho dosh dharo
nadiya bhi wahi hai naav wahi
nadiya bhi wahi hai naav wahi
ab tum bhi kaho kya karna hai
ab kaise paar utarna hai
jab apni chhati me hamne
is desh ke ghav dekhe the
tha wedo par vishwas bahut
aur yaad bahut se nuskhe the
o yu lagta hai bas kuch dil me
saari vipda kat jayengi
aur sab ghav bhar jayenge
aisa naa hua ki rog apne
kuch itne bher purane the
vaido ki toh ko pa naa sake
aur tut ke sab bekar gaye
ab jo bhi chaho chhan karo
ab jo bhi chaho chhan karo
ab jitna chaho dosh dharo
chhati to wahi hai ghav wahi
chhati to wahi hai ghav wahi
ab tum hi kaho kya karna hai
ye ghav kaise bharna hai
ye ghav kaise bharna hai
Poetic Translation - Lyrics of Ab Tumhi Kaho Kyaa Karna
When into the river of sorrow,
We launched the boat of our lives,
How heavy the grasp of arms,
How crimson the blush of strife.
It seemed as though two hands would reach,
And the boat would touch the shore,
But it was not so, in every current,
Unseen whirlpools did roar.
Some boatmen were strangers to us,
Some oars held no guiding lore.
Now sift and sift as you desire,
Now sift and sift as you may,
Now cast as many blames as you please,
The river remains, the boat the same way,
The river remains, the boat the same way,
Now tell me, what must be done?
Now, how can we reach the shore?
When within our own chests,
We saw the wounds of this land,
Faith in the Vedas was ample,
And many remedies close at hand.
Oh, it seemed in but a few days,
All misfortune would be swept away,
And all the wounds would heal.
But it was not so, for our own ailments,
Were so very, very old,
Ah, we could not find the cure,
And everything shattered, grew cold.
Now sift and sift as you desire,
Now sift and sift as you may,
Now cast as many blames as you please,
The chest remains, the wounds the same way,
The chest remains, the wounds the same way,
Now you yourself, tell me what must be done?
How can these wounds be healed?
How can these wounds be healed?
