O DHARTI TARSE AMBAR BARSE

baag ko janam denevaala baagbaan parivaar ko janam denevaala pitaa	A gardener gives life to a garden, a father gives life to a family;
dono.n hii apne khuun pasiine se apne paudho.n ko sii.nchte hai.n	both water their plants with their sweat and blood.
na sirf apne peR se uske saaye se bhii pyaar karte hai.n	They love not only their trees, but also the trees' shadows,
kyo.nki use ummiid hai ek roz jab voh zi.ndagii se thak jaa'ega	because they hope that one day, when they are tired of life,
yehii saaya uske kaam aa'ega	these very shadows will shelter them.
o dhartii tarse ambar barse rut aa'e rut jaa'e haay	Oh, the earth pines; the sky rains down; the season comes and goes.
har mausam kii khushbuu chunke baagbaan baag sajaa'e	The gardener nurtures his garden with the fragrance of each season.
baago.n ke har phuul ko apna samjhe baagban...	The gardener considers each and every flower his own...
har ghaRii kare rakhvaalii pattii pattii Daalii Daalii sii.nche baagban	He unceasingly tends and waters each leaf, each branch.
baagbaan rab hai baagbaan...	The gardener is god...
o madhuban kii bahaar le aa'e	He brings the spring of Madhuban.
mausam riite riite haay mausam riite riite	The seasons turn,
janam janam kii trishna bujh ga'ii	their desires are extinguished,
birhaa ke kshan biite haay birhaa ke kshan biite	the moments of separation pass.
phir se sajaa'e bikhare apne sapne baagbaan...	Then, once again, the gardener adorns his scattered dreams...
baagbaan rab hai baagbaan...	The gardener is god...
maa pita kii unke man me.n tanik nahii.n parvaah	The ones in whose hearts there isn't the slightest concern for mother and father,
aa.nsuu bhar naino.n se inko dekhe baagbaan...	the gardener looks at them with tear-filled eyes...
baagbaan rab hai baagbaan...	The gardener is god...
kisne dukh kii agni Daalii ba.njar ho gaye khet	Who spread this fire of grief? The fields have gone barren.
harii bharii jiivan bagiyaa se uRne lagii hai ret	Oh colorful life, sand has begun to fly from the garden.
kya boya tha aur kya kaaTa soche baagban...	The gardener wonders what he has reaped, and and what has been scythed away...
baagbaan rab hai baagbaan...	The gardener is god...
yehii sochke saa.nse.n likh dii in phulo.n ke naam	He wrote his breaths in the names of the flowers,
inkii chaniyaa.n chaniyaa.n biite umr kii DHaltii shaam	in whose seeds was the setting of his evening.
gu.nche har dam hii muskaa'e.n chaahe baagbaan...	The gardener wants his blossoms to smile forever...
har ghaRii kare rakhvaalii pattii pattii Daalii Daalii sii.nche baagban	He unceasingly tends and waters each leaf, each branch.
baagbaan rab hai baagbaan...	The gardener is god...
