1/4: roshni

waqt ki aandhi mein bhi

roshni ka diya jalaata raha

mera qalam mera saathi

mera humraaz banta raha

even during the storms of time

i kept lighting the lamp of brightness

my pen remained my friend,

my confidant all through

2/4: roshni

zulmaton mein roshni ki

justuju karte raho

zindagi bhar zindagi ki

justuju karte raho

in deep darkness,

keep looking for light

all through life,

keep looking for life

3/4: roshni

ye roshni tere kamre

mein khud nahi aayi

shama ka jism pighalne

ke baad aayi

this light hasn’t come into

your room all by itself

it has come after burning

the body of a candle

4/4: roshni

ab hawayein hi karengi

roshni ka faisla

jis diye mein jaan hogi

woh diya rah jaayega

now the winds decide

the fate of the light

the lamps that are strong

will remain lit
