udhar daulat idhar dil hai
utha le jo bhi tu chahe
magar rakhna khayal itna
ke aakhir dil hi kaam aaye
tabhi to arj kiya hai kya
ke sau sau ke note pe na ja
sau sau ke note pe na ja
meri jaan ulfat badi chiz hai
sau sau ke note pe na ja
meri jaan ulfat badi chiz hai

pahle to check book dikha meri jaan
pahle to check book dikha meri jaan
daulat badi chiz hai, waah waah
sau sau ke note pe na ja
meri jaan ulfat badi chiz hai

paisa jaha dekha imaan becha
kaudi kaudi tumne bhagwan becha
paisa jaha dekha imaan becha
kaudi kaudi tumne bhagwan becha
jiske pass sona chandi hai
usi ki duniya maane
is mohabbat me rakha hai kya
meri jaan ulfat badi chiz hai, ay
sau sau ke note pe na ja
meri jaan ulfat badi chiz hai

paise me na puchho kya bata dekhi
duniya sari chalti sath sath dekhi
chal jhuthi
paise me na puchho kya bata dekhi
duniya sari chalti sath sath dekhi
paisa yaar bana kiska
aaj uska kal hai uska
sath deti hai ulfat sada
meri jaan ulfat badi chiz hai
pahle to check book dikha meri jaan
pahle to check book dikha meri jaan
daulat badi chiz hai, ye lo
sau sau ke note pe na ja
meri jaan ulfat badi chiz hai

On that side, fortunes gleam; on this, a heart.
Choose what you will, make your own art.
But heed this truth, as you decide,
The heart's true worth will be your guide.
So hear my plea, let this be known:
Don't chase the hundred-note alone.
Don't chase the hundred-note alone,
My love, affection's seeds are sown.
Don't chase the hundred-note alone,
My love, affection's worth is known.

First, show your checkbook, my dear.
First, show your checkbook, it is clear.
Wealth is a thing to hold so dear, ah.
Don't chase the hundred-note alone,
My love, affection's worth is known.

Where money dwells, faith takes its flight,
For coins you've sold your God's own light.
Where money dwells, faith takes its flight,
For coins you've sold your God's own light.
The golden touch, the silver's gleam,
Dictate the world, it would seem.
What's left in love, its tender grace?
My love, wealth holds a favored place, ay.
Don't chase the hundred-note alone,
My love, affection's worth is known.

In money's grasp, what truths reside?
The world, in unison, does stride.
(Lies!)
In money's grasp, what truths reside?
The world, in unison, does stride.
A friend of wealth, today it seems,
Tomorrow's friend, it only dreams.
But love's embrace, forever near,
My love, affection conquers fear.
First, show your checkbook, my dear.
First, show your checkbook, it is clear.
Wealth is a thing to hold so dear, behold.
Don't chase the hundred-note alone,
My love, affection's worth is known.
