A single anna, then two,
Then three, then four accrue.
In this world, all are mad, it's true,
A single anna, then two.
Then three, then four, anew.
In this world, madness blooms,
And we are mad, sixteen annas' rooms.
A single anna, then two,
Then three, then four, we pursue.

See the wealthy, bellies round,
Deeds are foul, yet masters crowned.
In daylight's blaze, they trade in night,
And yet, the world calls them upright.
Oh, brother, they call them upright,
Oh, brother, they call them upright.

"I am the master, brother, I am he,
Who did this deed, whose name you see.
I beat the drum in the public square,
And auctioned your home, beyond compare.
Strike me down, oh, strike me true!
Together, strike, the whole world through!
Sweep me, kick me, stone and sand,
Strike, strike, strike with every hand!
Why sit you there, brother, rise and fight!"

A single anna, then two,
Then three, then four, it's true.
A single anna, then two,
Then three, then four, anew.
Hear my verse, I implore,
For God's sake, hear my lore!
Alas, none listen near,
Who in this world hold poets dear?
They wander, these children of verse, year after year.

Who in this world hold poets dear?
My worth, they do not know, Ram remains,
My worth they ignore, Ram remains, all work in vain.
Mangoes and seeds, all for Ram, his gain.
Dhum ta na na na na na na na na.
My worth, begone, go, go, go!
My worth, begone, go, go, go!
Go, my worth, depart.

Johnny, oh, oh, Johnny,
J J Jolly oh Johnny, world is fleeting, fleeting, fleeting.
Oh, oh, oh Jolly, he, he Johnny,
Oh Johnny, Johnny, Johnny, Johnny,
Oh, Johnny.

A single anna, then two,
Then three, then four, it's true.
A single anna, then two,
Then three, then four, anew.

Hope, hope, I call in the wood,
Oh, my hope,
Tied in a stable, understood.
My father cast me from the door,
Ah, he blackened my face to the core.
Oh, come, come, come!
He blackened my face to the core.
Oh, for you, he blackened my face to the core.
Oh, Asha, he blackened my face to the core,
Asha, Asha, Asha, Asha, hi, hi!

Empty, wasted, deal, deal,
Empty, wasted, deal, deal.
He prefers my blue,
From the enemy's feud.
Look at his father's ways,
He prefers my blue, from enemy's gaze.
Look, look, look! Alas, look, look, look!
Seen the world's fair,
People of every hue,
Some less, some more,
But all their screws are askew.
A single anna, then two,
Then three, then four, it's true.
A single anna, then two,
Then three, then four, anew.
In this world, all are mad,
And we are mad, sixteen annas, glad!
A single anna, then two,
Then three, then four, we pursue.
