Tum bhi chalo hum bhi chale

Hmm…Chalti rahe zindagi
Tum bhi chalo hum bhi chale
Chalti rahe zindagi
Tum bhi chalo hum bhi chale
Chalti rahe zindagi
Na zameen manzil na aasman
Zindagi hai zindagi
Tum bhi chalo hum bhi chale
Chalti rahe zindagi

Peechhe dekhe na
Kabhi mudke raahon mein oh...
Jhoome mera dil tumhe
Leke baahon mein oh...
Dhadkanon ki zubaan
Nit kahe daastan
Pyar ki jhilmil chhaon mein
Palti rahe zindagi
Tum bhi chalo hum bhi chale
Chalti rahe zindagi

Behte chale hum
Masti ke dhaaron mein oh...
Goonje yahi dhun
Sada dil ke taaron mein oh...
Ab ruke na kahin
Pyar ka kaarwan
Nit nayi ruth ke rang mein
Chalti rahe zindagi
Tum bhi chalo hum bhi chale
Chalti rahe zindagi
Na zameen manzil na aasman
Zindagi hai zindagi
Tum bhi chalo hum bhi chale
Chalti rahe zindagi

This song has two versions. Although the lyrics are the same in both, I have chosen the solo version because I am not in a mood to appreciate Amitabh Bachhan and Saira Banu on horseback.

The lyrics 'Tum bhi chalo hum bhi chale, Chalti rahe zindagi, Na zameen manzil na aasman, Zindagi hai zindagi' may sound depressing and listless. However, I think of it as a way of looking at life without being overly serious about it. ~ S
