Arijit Singh & Mohit Chauhan’s song Ilahi Lyrics in Hindi & English with English Translation from the movie Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani (2013) starring Ranbir Kapoor & Deepika Padukone.

This song is absolutely gorgeous. It is so mellow, divine, and beautiful! and the Sufi touch of this song just takes you to another world.
This song has been sung by both Mohit Chauhan & Arijit Singh and I like both versions. This is a song for life, it inspires you just move on in life and see this beautiful world as much as you can every day.
Here, is the first version of the voice of Arijit Singh which was used in the movie.
Ilahi Lyrics in Hindi
शामें मलंग सी, रातें सुरंग सी
बागी उड़ान पे ही ना जाने क्यूँ
इलाही मेरा जी आये आये..
कल पे सवाल है, जीना फिलहाल है
खानाबदोशियों पे ही जाने क्यूँ
इलाही मेरा जी आये आये..
मेरा फलसफा कंधे पे मेरा बस्ता
चला मैं जहाँ, ले चला मुझे रस्ता
बूंदों पे नहीं, बूंदों के समंदर पे वो
इलाही मेरा जी आये आये..
शामे मलंग सी…

Lyrics in English with Translation
Shaamein Malang Si, Ratein Surang Si
Baaghi Udaan Pe Hi Na Jane Kyun
Ilahi Mera Jee Aaye Aaye..
(Evenings, as if they’re mad,
nights like some tunnel
I don’t know why on rebel flights only,
O God, my heart comes
O God, my heart is interested)
Kal Pe Sawaal Hai, Jeena Philhaal Hai
Khanabadoshiyo Pe Hi Jaane Kyun
Ilahi Mera Jee Aaye Aaye…
(There is a question about tomorrow,
[as in, no one knows what happens tomorrow]
Living life is now
I don’t know why in nomadic ways only
I find my heart interested, O Lord,
my heart is interested..)
Mera Falsafa, Kandhe Pe Mera Basta
Chala Main Jahan, Le Chala Mujhe Rasta
Boondon Pe Nahin, Boondon Ke Samandar Pe Woh
Ilahi Mera Jee Aaye Aaye
Shaamein Malang Si…
(My philosophy is – my bag is on my shoulders.
I go wherever the path takes me
Not on the drops,
But the sea of drops itself
O God, my heart comes
O God, my heart is interested)
