ud ja ud ja pyase bhanware
ras na milega dharo me
kagaj ke phul jaha khilte hain
baithna un gulzaro me
nadan tamanna reti me
ummed ki kashti kheti hain
ik hath se deti hain duniya
sau hatho se le leti hain
ye khel hain kabse jari
hay bichhde sabhi
bichhde sabhi baari baari
are dekhi jamane ki yaari
bichhde sabhi baari baari

kya leke mile, ab duniya se
aansu ke siva, kuchh paas nahi
aa phul hi phul the daman me
yaha kaanto ki bhi aash nahi
matlab ki duniya hain sari
bichhde sabhi, bichhde sabhi baari baari
are dekhi jamane ki yaari
bichhde sabhi baari baari
bichhde sabhi baari baari

Fly away, thirsty bee, fly,
No nectar in streams will lie.
Where paper blooms in false display,
Do not in those fake gardens stay.

A foolish wish in desert sand,
A boat of hope, a barren land.
With one hand, the world bestows,
With a hundred, its taking grows.

This game has played for ages long,
Alas, all part, to grief belong.
I've seen the world's false company,
All part, in due decree.

What to bring to this world's meeting?
But tears, my heart repeating.
Once flowers bloomed, a fragrant grace,
Now thorns alone find their place.

A world of self-interest, through and through,
All part, and their farewells accrue.
I've seen the world's false company,
All part, in due decree.
All part, eternally.
