ho rata lambiya te vadi vadi ghadiya
har dil vich sau dil dariya
zara bachna ve zara bachna ve
ave gol gol ghumne da shok ni
khane pine da khabar na hee clock ni
zara bachna ve zara bachna ve

oye papi leke aaja sara maal
jai mata di bolke dariya mei daal
mujhe pata hai ki tera kaise hua aisa haal
hone wala hai bawal beta lungi sambhal
note bhar ke vote kare akal mei visfot kare
tere aaju baju wait kare hai system ki nautanki

oye sanke zara otp de man ki
ha sanke sanke khabar tujhe hai sabki
magar fikar nahi tujhe rab ki
bus quota quota cause kare
or do paise ki dhamki
oye sanki oye sanki oye sanki
chal funtas ki goli le
note bhar ke vote kare akal mai visfot kare
tere aaju baju wait kare hai system ki nautanki

oye sanke zara otp de man ki
ha sanke sanke khabar tujhe hai sabki
magar fikar nahi tujhe rab ki
bus quota quota cause kare
or do paise ki dhamki
oye sanki oye sanki oye sanki
chal funtas ki goli le

Nights stretch long, and hours grow vast,
A hundred hearts reside in each heart's cast.
Beware, oh, beware, be mindful of the way,
Not for spinning round and round, do you stay.
No heed for food, no glance at the clock's hand,
Beware, oh, beware, in this shifting land.

Hey, sinner, gather your wealth and hoard,
Chant "Hail Mother," then cast it overboard.
I know the path that led you here to fall,
A tempest brews, son, heed the coming call.
Stuffing notes, you buy votes, minds explode,
Around you, shadows wait, the system's charade.

Oh, madman, heed the whispers of your soul,
Yes, madman, you know all, taking their toll.
But of the Divine, you hold no care,
Just petty causes, a threat, a snare.
Oh, madman, oh, madman, oh, madman, you see,
Go take your pills of foolish glee.
Stuffing notes, you buy votes, minds explode,
Around you, shadows wait, the system's charade.

Oh, madman, heed the whispers of your soul,
Yes, madman, you know all, taking their toll.
But of the Divine, you hold no care,
Just petty causes, a threat, a snare.
Oh, madman, oh, madman, oh, madman, you see,
Go take your pills of foolish glee.
