ye duniya hai babu badi beiman badi beiman
maine kaha meri juba meri juba badi beiman
ye duniya hai babu badi beiman badi beiman

koi kahe karle iska bhala na tere dil ko aise jala
koi kahe karle iska bhala na tere dil ko aise jala
sadiyo ka dastur aisa chala ye to sikhata hai jiwan jala
chup chup ke anhkiya kya kahti hai
ye duniya hai babu badi beiman badi beiman

man ka andhera badha ja raha dil se bharosa chala ja raha
man ka andhera badha ja raha dil se bharosa chala ja raha
apna na koi nazar aa raha dar se ye insan ghabra raha
soya kaha hai soya kaha hai are bhagwan badi beiman
ye duniya hai babu badi beiman badi beiman
maine kaha meri juba meri juba badi beiman
ye duniya hai babu badi beiman badi beiman
ye duniya

This world, a serpent, coiled and sly, so sly,
I whispered, "My tongue, a liar in reply."
This world, a serpent, coiled and sly, so sly.

They say, embrace its fleeting grace,
Don't let your heart become a charred space.
They say, embrace its fleeting grace,
Don't let your heart become a scorched place.
A timeless law, a burning trace,
It teaches life's own fiery pace.
What whispers from your hidden eyes?
This world, a serpent, coiled and sly.

Darkness swells within the mind,
Trust departs, left far behind.
Darkness swells within the mind,
Faith recedes, of every kind.
No one appears, no kin to find,
Fear grips the soul, the heart entwined.
Awake, awake, O Lord divine, so sly,
This world, a serpent, coiled and sly.
I whispered, "My tongue, a liar in reply."
This world, a serpent, coiled and sly, so sly.
This world...
