humko paisa na do hum bikhari nahi
humko paisa na do hum bikhari nahi
hath failana aadat hamari nahi
humko paisa na do hum bikhari nahi
humko paisa na do hum bikhari nahi

koi kam aisa dedo jo hum kar sake
apni mehnat se pet apna hum bhar sake
hum bhi izzat se sar ko utha ke chale
chain se ji sake chain se mar sake
bat choti si hai bahut bhari nahi
hath failana aadat hamari nahi
humko paisa na do hum bikhari nahi
humko paisa na do hum bikhari nahi

chote hatho me apne badi jan hai
ache insan banne ka alfan hai
yad hai in shivaji ke nare hame
kam hi hum garobo ka bhagwan hai
kam se koi chiz pyari nahi
humko paisa na do hum bikhari nahi
hath failana aadat hamari nahi
humko paisa na do hum bikhari nahi
humko paisa na do hum bikhari nahi
hum bikhari nahi hum bikhari nahi
hum bikhari nahi

Give no coin, we are not beggars, no.
Give no coin, for we are not of that low.
To stretch a hand, it is not our way.
Give no coin, we are not beggars, nay.
Give no coin, we are not beggars, no.

Grant us labor, a task for us to seize,
That we may feed, through honest, toiling ease.
With heads held high, in dignity we'll stride,
And live in peace, and in peace we'll abide.
A simple plea, no heavy burden this,
To stretch a hand is not our promised bliss.
Give no coin, we are not beggars, no.
Give no coin, we are not of that low.

In small hands, a spirit, a mighty, burning fire,
To be good souls, our hearts aspire.
Remembered are the cries of Shivaji's call,
Work, to the poor, is God, embracing all.
For labor, there is nothing that we hold dear,
Give no coin, we are not beggars, here.
To stretch a hand is not our way, you see,
Give no coin, we are not beggars, free.
Give no coin, we are not of that low.
To stretch a hand is not our way, you know.
We are not beggars, no.
