rate gai bate gai jo bhi hua bhul ja
ab tu naye parivesh me duniya nayi phir basa
suraj naya nikle agar asan ho uska safar
kate teri varis jise vo fasle bo sakta hai
aur tujhse kuchh ho na ho
ye tujhase ho sakta hai
hamba lila hamba lilo hamba lile
chukuma tukuma tukuma chukuma chukuma chile
hamba lila hamba lilo hamba lile
chukuma tukuma tukuma chukuma chukuma chile

aj ham hai kal ham nahi
kal kuchh bhi kho sakta hai
hamba lila hamba lilo hamba lile
chukuma tukuma tukuma
chukuma chukuma chile

sach kah raha hai ae bekhabar kar le mera aitbar
ye zindagi nemat khuda ki milti hai bas ek bar
yu hi ise khona nahi phir bad me rona nahi
sanse teri hai ek ladi inko piro sakta hai
aur tujhse kuchh ho na ho ye tujhse ho sakta hai
hamba lila hamba lilo hamba lile
chukuma tukuma tukuma chukuma chukuma chile
aj ham hai kal ham nahi kal
kuchh bhi kho sakta hai

banglo me hai mahlo me hai par nind aati nahi
daulat ka ek sagar mila par pyas jati nahi
bhukha hai jo badnam hai santosh me aram hai
agar chain ho dil me tere dharti pe so sakta hai
aur tujhse kuchh ho na ho ye tujhse ho sakta hai
hamba lila hamba lilo hamba lile
chukuma tukuma tukuma chukuma chukuma chile
aj ham hai kal ham nahi kal kuchh bhi kho sakta hai
pyaar de pyar le ye ek daulat tu sabko de sakta hai

Nights have passed, and words have flown, let bygones fade away,
In a new domain, rebuild your world, greet a brand new day.
If the sun ascends anew, may its journey be light,
The thorns that pierce your kin, you can sow a harvest bright.
And though you may lack, or achieve what you may,
This, within you, surely may.
Hamba Lilla, Hamba Lilo, Hamba Lile,
Chukuma Tukuma, Tukuma, Chukuma, Chukuma, Chile.
Hamba Lilla, Hamba Lilo, Hamba Lile,
Chukuma Tukuma, Tukuma, Chukuma, Chukuma, Chile.

Here we stand, then gone we'll be, tomorrow, all might stray,
Hamba Lilla, Hamba Lilo, Hamba Lile,
Chukuma Tukuma,
Chukuma, Chukuma, Chile.

Truth I speak, O heedless heart, believe what I impart,
This life, a gift from the Divine, granted but a single start.
Do not waste it carelessly, nor later weep and moan,
Your breaths, a string of pearls, you can weave and call your own.
And though you may lack, or achieve what you may,
This, within you, surely may.
Hamba Lilla, Hamba Lilo, Hamba Lile,
Chukuma Tukuma, Tukuma, Chukuma, Chukuma, Chile.
Here we stand, then gone we'll be, tomorrow, all might stray.

In mansions grand, in palaces grand, sleep does not reside,
A sea of wealth you've gathered, but thirst you cannot hide.
The hungry ones are scorned, but peace in contentment lies,
If serenity dwells in your heart, on earth, you can softly rise.
And though you may lack, or achieve what you may,
This, within you, surely may.
Hamba Lilla, Hamba Lilo, Hamba Lile,
Chukuma Tukuma, Tukuma, Chukuma, Chukuma, Chile.
Here we stand, then gone we'll be, tomorrow, all might stray,
Love you give, and love you take, this wealth, you can bestow, today.
