khoya hai re khoya hai re chain khaa khoya hai re
jaane khaa chhipa hai re jaane khaa soya hai re
khoya hai re khoya hai re chain khaa khoya hai re
jaane khaa chhipa hai re jaane khaa soya hai re

chain chain saare dhundhe phir bhi chain mil naa paaye
kaun le gya chura ke baitha hai khaa chhipaye
ek haath me jo aaye duje haath fisla jaaye
kaise ham ise rijhaye kaise ham ise manaye
beiry chain beiry chain beiry chain beiry chain
kis gali me kaun si dagar milega kab ye chain
kis ghadi me kaun si pahar aayega kab ye chain

koi hai palke bichhaye koi hai ninde udaye
koi sine se lgaaye koi baato me chhipaye
koi maange koi paaye koi khoye koi laaye
koi to hame btaye khaa dhundhe khaa jaayen
beiry chain beiry chain beiry chain beiry chain
kis gali me kaun si dagar milega kab ye chain
kis ghadi me kaun si pahar aayega kab ye chain
khoya hai re khoya hai re chain khaa khoya hai re
jaane khaa chhipa hai re jaane khaa soya hai re
khoya hai re khoya hai re chain khaa khoya hai re
jaane khaa chhipa hai re jaane khaa soya hai re
jaane khaa chhipa hai re jaane khaa soya hai re

Lost, oh lost, where has peace gone astray?
Where does it hide, where does it lay?
Lost, oh lost, where has peace gone astray?
Where does it hide, where does it lay?

All search for peace, yet peace remains unseen,
Who stole it away, where does it convene?
Held in one hand, it slips through, unseen,
How to appease it, how to intervene?
Enemy Peace, Enemy Peace, a foe, a foe,
In which lane, on which road will it bestow?
In which hour, in which watch will it show?

Some lay out their lashes, some steal our sleep,
Some hold it to their chest, secrets they keep,
Some beg for it, some find it, some lose it, some reap,
Can someone tell us where to seek, where to leap?
Enemy Peace, Enemy Peace, a foe, a foe,
In which lane, on which road will it bestow?
In which hour, in which watch will it show?

Lost, oh lost, where has peace gone astray?
Where does it hide, where does it lay?
Lost, oh lost, where has peace gone astray?
Where does it hide, where does it lay?
Where does it lay?
Where does it lay?
