bekali bekhudi bebasi de gaya
bekali bekhudi bebasi de gaya
kuch naye tuzurbe ajnabi de gaya
bekali bekhudi bebasi de gaya

uski saudagiri me bhi insaf tha
uski saudagiri me bhi insaf tha
zindagi le gaya
zindagi de gaya
bekali bekhudi bebasi de gaya

sochne ke liye pal ki mohlat na di
sochne ke liye pal ki mohlat na di
jagne ke liye ik sadi de gaya
bekali bekhudi bebasi de gaya

le gaya jano dil jism se khich kar
le gaya jano dil jism se khich kar
ha magar ruh ki tajgi de gaya
bekali bekhudi bebasi de gaya
kuch naye tuzurbe ajnabi de daya

He gifted unease, oblivion, helplessness,
He gifted unease, oblivion, helplessness,
And strange, new experiences unforeseen,
He gifted unease, oblivion, helplessness.

In his commerce, even justice resided,
In his commerce, even justice resided,
He took life, but life itself he gave,
He gifted unease, oblivion, helplessness.

No moment for thought was granted,
No moment for thought was granted,
But a century to wake and see,
He gifted unease, oblivion, helplessness.

He took the soul and heart, ripped from the frame,
He took the soul and heart, ripped from the frame,
Yet, the freshness of the spirit he bestowed,
He gifted unease, oblivion, helplessness,
And strange, new experiences unforeseen.
