કંઈ તો છે કે જેથી ઊંચોનીચો થાય છે દરિયો;
મને તો આપણી જેમ જ દુઃખી દેખાય છે દરિયો.
Something causes the ocean to rise and fall;To me, the ocean appears as sad as we are.
The poet says that something causes the ocean to rise and fall; to him, the ocean appears as sorrowful as he himself is.

દિવસ આખો દિવસના તાપમાં શેકાય છે દરિયો;
અને રાતે અજંપો જોઈને અકળાય છે દરિયો.
The sea, all day, bakes in the heat of the day;And at night, seeing restlessness, the sea is in dismay.
The sea endures the day's scorching heat. At night, witnessing restlessness, the sea becomes agitated.

કહે છે કોણ કે ક્યારેય ન છલકાય છે દરિયો?
લથડિયાં ચાંદનીમાં રાત આખી ખાય છે દરિયો!
Who says the ocean never overflows?It stumbles through the moonlight all night long!
Who claims the ocean never overflows? The ocean stumbles and sways all night in the moonlight.

ખબર સુધ્ધાં નથી એને, ભીતર શી આગ સળગે છે!
નીતરતી ચાંદનીમાં બેફિકર થઈ, ન્હાય છે દરિયો.
It doesn't even know, what fire burns within! The sea, carefree, bathes in the flowing moonlight.

પ્રભુ જાણે, ગયો છે ચાંદનીમાં એવું શું ભાળી!
કે એના દ્વારની સામે ઊભો સુકાય છે દરિયો!
God knows, what did he witness in the moonlight's gleam!That at his door, the ocean stands and dries, it would seem!
God knows what he witnessed in the moonlight, that at his door, the ocean stands drying up.

જીવન, સાચું પૂછો તો એમનું કીકીના જેવું છે,
કદી ફેલાય છે ક્યારેક સંકોચાય છે દરિયો!
Life, if you truly ask, is like their pupil,Sometimes it expands, sometimes it contracts, the ocean!
Life is compared to their eye's pupil, which sometimes expands and sometimes contracts, much like the ocean's ebb and flow. This illustrates life's ever-changing and fluctuating nature.

ઠરીને ઠામ થાવા એ જ છે જાણે કે ઠેકાણું,
કે જેનીતેની આંખોમાં જઈ, ડોકાય છે દરિયો!
To settle down and find its home, that seems to be its destined place,For in the eyes of everyone, the ocean shows its face!
To settle down and find its abode, that is precisely the place, where the ocean peeks into everyone's eyes.

બડો ચબરાક છે, સંગ એમનો કરવો નથી સારો,
નદી જેવી નદીને પણ ભગાડી જાય છે દરિયો!
He is very cunning, their company is not good to keep, Even a river, mighty as it is, the ocean sweeps away!
He is very cunning, so their company is not good to keep. Even a mighty river is swept away by the ocean.

ગમે ત્યારે જુઓ ‘ઘાયલ’ ઘૂઘવતો હોય છે આમ જ,
દિવસના શું? ઘડી રાતેય ના ઘોંટાય છે દરિયો!
Whenever you look, 'Ghayal' is surging just like this,What of the day? Even for a moment at night, the ocean cannot be silenced!
'Ghayal' is always restless and turbulent, just like the ocean never calms down even for a moment, not even at night, let alone during the day.
