Before the beginning, and after the end
Inside the unapparent, and beyond the obvious

Brighter than the sun and the moon
Evening and daybreak, lost in light
The tree sparkles, the stone sparkles

bujhne vaalii sab raatoN meN apnaa ruup dikhaa degaa
taariikii ke tuufaanoN meN kashtii paar lagaa degaa
In all dimming nights, its beauty will be visible
In storms of darkness, the boat will get across
tuu hii saaHil , tuu hii manzil
tuu hii har dam hai meraa

Only you are my shore, only you are my rest
Only you are my every breath
Only you are my intimate friend, my conductor
only you are my guide

Evening and daybreak, lost in light
The tree sparkles, the stone sparkles
