gagri sukhi bail pyasa kale megha pani de
akal ka andha ganth ka pura phir koi aasami de
sambhl ke sambhl ke sambhl ke
ye dunia hai nagar hoshiyaro ka
idhar ankh jhapkayi or udhar mal yaro ka
sambhl ke sambhl ke sambhl ke
ye dunia hai nagar hoshiyaro ka
idhar ankh jhapkayi or udhar mal
yaro ka sambhl ke sambhl ke

kab dekhi hai hatho ki tune safai
reh jayega raste me deta duhai
kab dekhi hai hatho ki tune safai
reh jayega raste me deta duhai
pukare lakh tu sayi koi thukega bhi naahi ek baat kehta hu
sambhl ke sambhl ke sambhl ke
ye dunia hai nagar hoshiyaro ka
idhar ankh jhapkayi or udhar maal yaro ka
sambhl ke sambhl ke sambhl ke

ye dunia hai dunia se ummid kaisi ho
sakta dushman tera tera padosi
ye dunia hai dunia se ummid kaisi ho
sakta dushman tera tera padosi
nikal bhage na gharwali laga kar
hoth pe lali nahi nahi ek bat kehta hu
sambhl ke sambhl ke sambhl ke
ye dunia hai nagar hoshiyaro ka
idhar ankh jhapkayi or udhar mal yaro ka
sambhl ke sambhl ke sambhl ke


ye sare tan ke ujle kale hai man ke
jina hai to ji pyare chalak banke
ye sare tan ke ujle kale hai man ke
jina hai to ji pyare chalak banke
nahi samjha agar babu to hai bilkul hi tu budhu
nahi nahi ek bat kehta hu bhai
sambhl ke sambhl ke sambhl ke
ye dunia hai nagar hoshiyaro ka
idhar ankh jhapkayi or udhar mal yaro ka
sambhl ke sambhl ke sambhl ke
sambhl ke sambhl ke sambhl ke

The pitcher cracks, the ox thirsts, dark clouds withhold the rain,
Blind to wisdom, rich in hoard, who'll offer succor again?
Beware, be wary,
Beware,
This world, a city of the shrewd,
A blink, and fortunes shift, your comrades take their due.
Beware, be wary,
Beware.

This world, a city of the shrewd,
A blink, and fortunes shift, your comrades take their due.
Beware, be wary.

When have you witnessed hands so clean?
You'll cry out, lost, within the scene.
When have you witnessed hands so clean?
You'll cry out, lost, within the scene.
Though you call out to the saint a million times, they'll only spit, I tell you this:
Beware, be wary,
Beware.

This world, a city of the shrewd,
A blink, and fortunes shift, your comrades take their due.
Beware, be wary,
Beware.

From this world, what hope can rise?
Your neighbor, your foe in disguise.
From this world, what hope can rise?
Your neighbor, your foe in disguise.
Your wife might flee, her lips aflame,
No, no, I tell you this:
Beware, be wary,
Beware.
This world, a city of the shrewd,
A blink, and fortunes shift, your comrades take their due.
Beware, be wary,
Beware.

Though bodies gleam, within, dark shadows lie,
To live, dear friend, be cunning, learn to pry.
Though bodies gleam, within, dark shadows lie,
To live, dear friend, be cunning, learn to pry.
If you don't grasp this, friend, you're a fool indeed,
No, no, I tell you this:
Beware, be wary,
Beware.
This world, a city of the shrewd,
A blink, and fortunes shift, your comrades take their due.
Beware, be wary,
Beware.
Beware, be wary,
Beware.
