azab paise ka fanda hai azab paise ka chakkar hai
jaha dekho wahi insan ki
paise se takkar hai

chan chan kari daulat bole seth tijori tod de
lakho hi ka bhala hai isme ab ye kaidi chhod de
chhan chhan kari daulat bole seth tijori tod de
lakho hi ka bhala hai isme ab ye kaidi chhod de
rukha sukha khake hamne joda hamne paisa paisa
tumko kaise denga hamko samjha ullu jaisa
kya samjha ullu jaisa sun re mehta
sun re mehta lathi leke aiso ka sar fod de
lakho hi ka bhala hai isme ab ye kaidi chhod de
chan chan kari daulat bole seth tijori tod de
lakho hi ka bhala hai isme ab ye kaidi chhod de

lahko insano ki roti das barah tu chhine
ye daulat jo bahar aaye isse chale mashine
isse chale mashine ise lutade bhar bhar jholi
seth tijori tod de lakho hi ka bhala hai isme
ab ye kaidi chhod de chhan chhan kari daulat bole
seth tijori tod de lakho hi ka bhal hai isme
ab ye kaidi chhod de

daulat meri bandi isko umar kaid me dala
kisme himmat hai jo tode motu ram ka tala
are motu ram ka tala kyu be mehta
kyu be mehta hai koi jo itna paisa jod de
lakho hi ka bhala hai isme ab ye kaidi chhod de
chan chan kari daulat bole seth tijori tod de
lakho hi ka bhala hai isme ab ye kaidi chhod de

tere ghar ke samne aake bhukho ne was dhaya
o seth nirmohi seth tujhe kyu inme raham na aaya
kyu inme raham na aaya jiwan nayya dagmag bole
seth tijori tod de lakho hi ka bhala hai isme
ab ye kaidi chhod de chan chan kari daulat bole
seth tijori tod de lakho hi ka bhala hai isme
ab ye kaidi chhod de

tere samne bukha insa gas kha kha ke leta
de de sab kuch agar hai seth karodimal ka beta
seth karodimal ka beta sun re mehta dil mera bole
seth tijori tod de lakho hi ka bhala hai isme
ab ye kaidi chhod de chan chan kari daulat bole
seth tijori tod de lakho hi ka bhal hai isme
ab ye kaidi chhod de chan chan kari daulat bole
seth tijori tod de lakho hi ka bhala hai isme
ab ye kaidi chhod de

A strange snare, this coin, a curious chase,
Where'er you look, the human meets its face.

Clink and clink, the wealth does speak, "Oh, Seth, break the chest,
Release the captives, do what's best."
Clink and clink, the wealth does speak, "Oh, Seth, break the chest,
Release the captives, do what's best."
We, on scraps we dined, did gather coin, each penny earned,
To give to you? You see us fools, our lesson unlearned?
What, fools you see? Listen Mehta!
Take a stick and crack their skulls,
Release the captives, do what's best,
Clink and clink, the wealth does speak, "Oh, Seth, break the chest,
Release the captives, do what's best."

Millions of lives for bread you steal, ten or twelve,
This wealth that flows, the machines propel.
Machines it runs, pour it out, fill the sack,
Oh Seth, break the chest, release the captives, give it back.
Clink and clink, the wealth does speak, "Oh, Seth, break the chest,
Release the captives, do what's best."

My wealth, a prisoner, in an age of chains,
Who dares to break Motu Ram's domain?
Motu Ram's lock, why Mehta, say,
Is there one who gathers wealth this way?
Release the captives, do what's best,
Clink and clink, the wealth does speak, "Oh, Seth, break the chest,
Release the captives, do what's best."

Before your door, the hungry souls descend,
Oh, heartless Seth, no mercy do you lend?
No mercy you extend, life's frail words unfold,
Oh Seth, break the chest, release the wealth, be bold.
Clink and clink, the wealth does speak, "Oh, Seth, break the chest,
Release the captives, do what's best."

Before your eyes, the hungry ones eat grass and fall,
Give all you have, if you're Seth Karorimal's call.
Seth Karorimal's son, listen Mehta, my heart it cries,
Oh Seth, break the chest, release the wealth, before it dies.
Clink and clink, the wealth does speak, "Oh, Seth, break the chest,
Release the captives, do what's best."
Clink and clink, the wealth does speak, "Oh, Seth, break the chest,
Release the captives, do what's best."
Clink and clink, the wealth does speak, "Oh, Seth, break the chest,
Release the captives, do what's best."
