kathak bhi badla bhangda bhi badla
ab hulla hup aa gaya
chali kaisi zamane me ulti hawa
chali kaisi zamane me ulti hawa
hulla hup hulla hup hulla hup
hulla hup hulla hup hulla hup
kathak bhi badla bhangda bhi badla
ab hulla hup aa gaya
chali kaisi zamane me ulti hawa
chali kaisi zamane me ulti hawa
hulla hup hulla hup hulla hup
hulla hup hulla hup hulla hup

raat raat raat jhuth tere munh me khak
bol bol bol kabhi to accha bol
kajri ki baat kar thumri ki baat kar
kajri ki baat kar thumri ki baat kar
ya chhed de dadra
chali kaisi zamane me ulti hawa
chali kaisi zamane me ulti hawa
hulla hup hulla hup hulla hup
hulla hup hulla hup hulla hup

apne watan ki har chiz khoti
khoti ji khoti ji khoti khoti khoti
akal zamane ki ho gayi moti
moti ji moti ji moti moti moti
na bhesh apna na apni roti
na bhesh apna na apni roti
mardo ke sar se utar gayi pagdi
aurat ka ghunghat gaya
chali kaisi zamane me ulti hawa
chali kaisi zamane me ulti hawa
hulla hup hulla hup hulla hup
hulla hup hulla hup hulla hup

gaaye gajal na, na bole rubai
sunne me aaye kahi na chaupai
saju ki amma saju ke appa
gaate hai ab to sab luralayi
lura la lura la lura la lura la
ab na wo murgi ab na wo harkat
badla hai har pentra
chali kaisi zamane me ulti hawa
chali kaisi zamane me ulti hawa
kathak bhi badla bhangda bhi badla
ab hulla hup aa gaya
chali kaisi zamane me ulti hawa
chali kaisi zamane me ulti hawa
hulla hup hulla hup hulla hup
hulla hup hulla hup hulla hup

The Kathak shifts, Bhangra bends,
Now Hula Hoops begin.
A twisted wind the age now lends,
A twisted wind within.
Hula Hoop, Hula Hoop, Hula Hoop,
Hula Hoop, Hula Hoop, Hula Hoop.
The Kathak shifts, Bhangra bends,
Now Hula Hoops begin.
A twisted wind the age now lends,
A twisted wind within.
Hula Hoop, Hula Hoop, Hula Hoop,
Hula Hoop, Hula Hoop, Hula Hoop.

Night after night, lies on your tongue,
Dust in your mouth, a hollow song.
Speak, oh speak, a truthful word,
Of Kajri's grace, Thumri heard,
Of Kajri's grace, Thumri heard,
Or Daadra's strains be stirred.
A twisted wind the age now lends,
A twisted wind within.
Hula Hoop, Hula Hoop, Hula Hoop,
Hula Hoop, Hula Hoop, Hula Hoop.

Our homeland's treasures, deemed as base,
Base, ah base, in this cold space.
The world's own wisdom, dense and thick,
Thick, ah thick, with every trick.
No garb we claim, no bread we bake,
No garb we claim, no bread we bake.
From men's heads, the turbans slip,
From women's faces, veils now rip.
A twisted wind the age now lends,
A twisted wind within.
Hula Hoop, Hula Hoop, Hula Hoop,
Hula Hoop, Hula Hoop, Hula Hoop.

No Ghazals sung, nor Rubai's call,
No Chaupai's echo through the hall.
Saju's mother, Saju's father too,
Sing lullabies, a mournful crew.
Lurra La, Lurra La, Lurra La, Lurra La.
No more the hen, no more the stance,
Each tactic changed, each fleeting glance.
A twisted wind the age now lends,
A twisted wind within.
The Kathak shifts, Bhangra bends,
Now Hula Hoops begin.
A twisted wind the age now lends,
A twisted wind within.
Hula Hoop, Hula Hoop, Hula Hoop,
Hula Hoop, Hula Hoop, Hula Hoop.
