bhool ke tu gham chalna do kadam ab muskura ke,
ab muskura ke aankhein na chura sar utha zara
dunia hai aage nayi dunia hai aage huyi
hai galtiyan hai maan jo liya koi rokega kya,

badte kadam dil sacha
hai tera, tu jaanta hai na
ab khud ko yu na dede
tu sazaa jo hoyea so hoya,

o bandeya jo hoyea so hoya,
o bandeya kuch seekha kuch khoya,
o bandeya jo hoyea so hoya jo hoyea so hoya
kuch seekha kuch khoya kuch seekha kuch khoya hai

kore kaagaz si zindagi ab chal kuch naya likhte hain
yaara gham ki jo shaamein thi sehli sab khushiyon ke
din ab dikhte hain behke thhe thoda sa, hai maan jo
liya koi rokega kya, badte kadam dil sacha hai tera,

tu jaanta hai na ab khud ko
yu na dede tu sazaa jo hoyea
so hoya, o bandeya jo hoyea so hoya,
o bandeya kuch seekha kuch khoya,
o bandeya jo hoyea so hoya jo hoyea so hoya

kuch seekha kuch khoya kuch seekha kuch khoya
jo hoyea so hoya jo hoyea so hoya kuch
seekha kuch khoya kuch seekha kuch
khoya jo hoyea so hoya, o bandеya
kuch seekha kuch khoyea, o bandeya
