Singing in sub-titles!

Crazy is the life that keeps on changing everytime.
Shade comes now and then, in otherwise shiny gala time.

Each moment here, keep living on...
this atmosphere, may soon be gone.

Okay now, try singing the above lines in the tune of the following song.

Har ghadi badal rahi hai roop zindagi
Chhav hai kabhi, kabhi hai dhoop zindagi

Har pal yahaan, jee bhar jiyo
Jo hai samaan, kal ho na ho!

Almost fits? I have tried to keep the meaning pretty similar, but then English words on a Hindi tune can be a bit tricky. Anyway let's continue on with the second stanza...

Chahe jo tumhe poore dil se... it goes doesn't it? How would an english version look here? Read on...

One who yearns for you with the whole heart...
is really hard to find, no matter what.

If you get to meet somebody such...
Say yes with a thank you very much!

That awesome hand, is yours to take...
Such loving heart, is never fake!

Alright then, that's all for now!
