My name is the Deceiver, my name is the Deceiver,
My name is the Deceiver, my name is the Deceiver.
To Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, and Christian, my greeting I weave.
To Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, and Christian, my greeting I weave.
My name is the Deceiver, my name is the Deceiver.
To Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, and Christian, my greeting I weave.
My name is the Deceiver.

Behold, people, ponder awhile, how this story takes hold,
Where joy resides, where sorrow unfolds.
Why this discord, why this discord?
You stole my bread, I grasped your gold.
What wonders you weave, from morn till the night’s last dream,
To Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, and Christian, my greeting I weave.
My name is the Deceiver, my name is the Deceiver.

They block my path with eyes that sharply gleam,
We, the lovers of fleeting worldly stream.
Love’s lessons we shun, love's lessons we shun.
Wherever the price is set, I play my scheme.
To Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, and Christian, my greeting I weave.
To Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, and Christian, my greeting I weave.
My name is the Deceiver.

I am the prince of the poor, grant what you may crave,
Princes with swords do play and rave.
I play with tears, I play with tears.
My toil is my art; His will, the saving wave.
To Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, and Christian, my greeting I weave.
My name is the Deceiver, my name is the Deceiver.
To Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, and Christian, my greeting I weave.
My name is the Deceiver.
