Aare dekhi zamaane ki yaari
bichhade sabhi, bichhade sabhi baari baari
kya le ke milen, ab duniya se, aansu ke siva kuchh paas nahin
ya phool hi phool the daaman men, yaa kaanton ki bhi aas nahin
matalab ki duniya hai saari
bichhade sabhi, bichhade sabhi baari baari
vaqt hai maharabaan, aarzoo hai javaan
fikr kal ki karen, itani fursat kahaan
daur ye chalata rahe, rang uchhalata rahe
roop machalata rahe, jaam badalata rahe
raat bhar mahamaan, hain bahaaren yahaan
raat gar dhal gayi phir ye khushiyaan kahaan
pal bhar ki khushiyaan hain saari
badhane lagi beqaraari, badhane lagi beqaraari
are dekhi zamaane ki yaari
bichhade sabhi, bichhade sabhi baari baari
ud jaa ud jaa pyaase bhanvare, ras na milega khaaron men
kaagaz ke phool jahaan khilate hain, baith na un gulazaaro men
naadaan tamanna reti men, ummeed ki kashti kaheti hai
ik haath se deti hai duniya, sou haathon se leti hai
ye khel hai kab se jaari
bichhade sabhi, bichhade sabhi baari baari
