jihua pe chhale pade panth nihar nihar
jihua pe chhale pade panth nihar nihar
aankho mein hai cataract aaya
aaja aaja aaja pukaar aaja
aaja aaja are dilli wali didi aaja
jaipur wali jiji aaja aaja aaja
aaja arrey pune wale bhau aaja
une wale prau aaja aaja aaja
aaja chalu train ka ticket kata kar
ya t.c. ko ghoos khila kar aaja aaja aaja
kab tak yu suna sa rasta dikhaoge
bolo ji bolo atithi kab aaoge
bolo ji bolo atithi kab aaoge
bolo ji bolo atithi kab aaoge
bolo ji bolo atithi tum kab aaoge

hum ne kar kar phone bulaya
apne ghar pe koi na aaya aaja aaja aaja
sharma ji ke uncle aa gaye
rajni ji ke devar aa gaye

munna pooch raha hai
papa atithi kya hota hai batao na papa
are munna puch raha hai papa kya hota mehmaan batao
iski utsukta kuch kam ho bina bataye tu na jao
aaja aaja aaja
hey chadar wadar dho gayi bai
biwi bhi raashan le aayi aaja aaja aaja
arrey naya kaam kuch aaya bhi hai
jeb mein thodi maya bhi hai aaja aaja aaja
aisa bhi din hota kabhi na tum paaoge
bolo ji bolo atithi kab aaoge
bolo ji bolo atithi kab aaoge
bolo ji bolo atithi kab aaoge
bolo ji bolo atithi tum kab aaoge

credit card ke bill jaise tum bina bataye aa jao na
aa jao na aa jao na diwaro ke jale jaise
saaf kare se bhi jaye na na jaye na na jaye na
credit card ke bill jaise tum bina bataye aa jao na
aaja aaja aaja are diwaro ke jaale jaise
saaf kare se bhi jaaye na aaja aaja aaja
chaubis ghante paani aaye bijli bhi aake na jaaye
na ja na ja na ja arre khana garama garam milega
phula phulka naram milega aaja aaja aaja
arre humko khushi hogi jab jab tum khaoge
bolo ji bolo atithi kab aaoge
bolo ji bolo atithi kab aaoge
bolo ji bolo atithi kab aaoge
bolo ji bolo atithi kab aaoge
bolo ji bolo atithi kab aaoge bolo ji
bolo atithi kab aaoge bolo ji bolo

Paths worn smooth by the tongue's constant plea,
Paths worn smooth, longing eyes can barely see.
Cataracts cloud the vision's fading light,
Come, oh come, into the waiting night.
Come, oh come, and answer our desire,
Come, Delhi's sister, set your soul afire!
Jaipur's lady, heed our whispered call,
Come, Pune's brother, lest we stumble and fall.
From distant lands, on trains you must embark,
Bribe the guard, leave your indelible mark.
Come, oh come, your absence we deplore,
How long will this empty road endure?
Tell us, tell us, when will you appear,
Tell us, tell us, banish all our fear.
We've called and called, our voices strained and weak,
Yet no one comes, the silence starts to speak.
Sharma's uncle, a welcome sight,
Rajni's brother-in-law, bathed in light.

Munna asks, a child's innocent plea,
"Papa, what is a guest? Explain it to me."
His curiosity, a boundless stream,
Do not depart, fulfill his innocent dream.
Come, oh come, and fill this empty space,
The laundry's done, the wife has bought the grace.
Has any new work finally appeared?
Is there money in your pocket, dearly revered?
Such days you'll rarely find, I do believe,
Tell us, tell us, when will you receive?
Tell us, tell us, when will you arrive,
Tell us, tell us, and keep our hopes alive.

Like credit card bills, you come unbidden,
Like webs on walls, eternally hidden,
No matter how we cleanse, you will not fade,
Like credit card bills, your presence is made.
Like webs on walls, you will not cease.
Come, oh come, and bring us inner peace.
Twenty-four hours, water flows so free,
Electricity's unending decree.
Don't depart, don't leave, our hearts now yearn,
Hot food awaits, for your taste to learn.
Soft, puffed bread, a culinary dream,
Come, oh come, fulfil our inner scheme.
We'll rejoice when you at last partake,
Tell us, tell us, for goodness sake.
Tell us, tell us, when will you arise,
Tell us, tell us, and dry our weeping eyes.
Tell us, tell us, and end our long wait.
Tell us, tell us, before it's too late.
Tell us, tell us, when will you appear.
Tell us, tell us, and quell our fear.
Tell us, tell us, when will you be here?
