apun jaise tapori ko kya malum
sala pyaar kis chidiya ka naam hai
lukkha giri karke apna timepass hota hai
bidi paan chay milta hai bus apun khush
yeh pyar ka lafda locha kay ko kay ko are kaye ko re
phir bole to ek din apun ke mohalle main hema aayi

sala apun ka khopdi chakkar kha gaya
truck ke saath bhi sala takkar kha gaya
hey cha ayala kya surat thi vo kya kehte hain
kya kehte hain, haan julfe kya julfe thi
chalti thi ek dum hawa ke mafik
aankhe aisi ki ruka de traffic
apun socha apun ka beda paar ho gaya
bole to baap, sala apun ko bhi pyaar ho gaya

din bhar apun uski khidki ke nichu koi lafda nahi kuch nahi
teen din na azzeb se lada na roshan se panga bus choop chap
pahli baar ladki dekhi
aankhe ruk bhi jaati to, to kya aankh nahi maari
apun ka bhidu bhi sala darr gaya
bola are munna sala tu kaise darr gaya

phir ek din usko dekh ke kallad bola
aye munna bhi vo dekh kya kayamat ja rahi hai baap
apun ka khopdi sarka, kallad ko pakda aur bola
idhar aa shayane tere ko kayamat dikhata hu
sale ko itna dhoya itna dhoya abhi tak thobda wakda hai
aur aaj tak apun ke saath uska chhatis ka aankda hai
samjha, samjha kya, phir hema ka kya hua
phir ik din vo apun ke dekh ke hansi
apun bola baap hansi to phasi
lagta hai vo bhi apun pe phida ho gayi
do din ke baad uski shadi ho gayi

apun ke saamne vo ghar se bida ho gayi
uski doli uthi, apun, apun udhar ich khada tha
lekin vo apun ko nahi dekhi, vo raat apun do baje tak piya
vo raat apun do baje tak piya, saala ek, ek sapna dekha tha
lekin maa kasam main ek aansu nahi roya
kaay ko royega, kaay ko royega, sala apun ich yeda tha na
agle din vahich pehale ke mafik life chaloo
vahich gande glass main chaye vahich paan bidi
azzeb ko itna maara ki log samjhe vo marega
bhulne kay bulne kay par kya karega

sapna toota hai to dil kabhi jalta hai
haa thoda dard hua par chalta hai
sapna toota hai to dil kabhi jalta hai
haa thoda dard hua par chalta hai
phir, phir kya hua, phir, phir kya hua
agle din apne mohalle main aishwarya aayi
apna khopdi phir chakkar kha gaya
phir truck ke saath phir chakkar kha gaya
cha ayala kya soorat thi, aakhe aisi ke aise
aye munna bhai tere dil ka traffic phir se ruka kya?

To a street tough, what's love?
Just a word, a bird's flight above.
We lurk, we pass time,
Bidis, paan, tea, our simple climb.
This love-fuss, this mess, this why, why, why?
Then, one day, Hema came to my eye.

My head spun, a dizzying spree,
Even a truck couldn't stop me.
Oh, what beauty, what a face, they say,
What do they say? Hair, oh, what sway!
She walked like the wind, so free,
Eyes that could stop all traffic, you see.
I thought my boat had sailed, finally free,
Said it aloud, "Baap! Love hit even me."

Days I lingered beneath her window, no strife, no crime,
Three days, no fights with Ajjab, no quarrels with Roshan, just time.
First time I saw a girl, so bright,
My eyes paused, but I didn't even wink right.
My friend, he was scared, could not believe,
Said, "Munna, why are you afraid to grieve?"

Then one day, seeing her, Kallu said,
"Hey Munna bhai, look at that beauty, ahead!"
My head snapped, I grabbed Kallu with rage,
Said, "Come here, wise guy, I'll show you the stage!"
I beat him senseless, his face, still askew,
And to this day, our paths are askew.
You understand? Then, Hema, what became?
One day, she laughed, as if a burning flame.
I thought, "She laughs, she's caught!"
Must be, she's fallen for me, thought I had bought.
Two days later, she was wed, a new place sought.

Before my eyes, she left, a bridal flight,
Her palanquin rose, I stood, a lonely sight,
But she didn't see me, my heart's plight.
That night, I drank 'til two, my soul's decree,
That night, I drank 'til two, living a fantasy.
But mother's oath, no tears would fall,
Why would I weep? Why would I stall?
I was the fool, I had to understand it all.
Next day, life began again, the same,
Same dirty glass, same tea, same flame.
I beat Ajjab so hard, they thought he would die,
To forget, forget, but what could I try?

When a dream shatters, the heart sometimes burns,
A little pain, yes, but the journey turns.
When a dream shatters, the heart sometimes burns,
A little pain, yes, but the journey returns.
Then, what happened? Then, what happened next?
Next day, Aishwarya came to my perplexed.
My head spun again, a familiar fight,
Again a truck, I faced its fright.
Oh, what a face, eyes that would stay,
Hey Munna bhai, your heart's traffic, does it stay?
