data ji, data ji
data ji tera bhed na paaya
data ji tera bhed na paaya
bhed na paaya tera bhed na paaya
bhed na paaya tera bhed na paaya
data ji tera bhed na paaya

dhanwaalo ko dhan de itna
paani sagar me ho jitna
unpar barse sona chandi, sona chandi
daulat jin ke ghar ki baandi
sagar me kyu megh barsaya
sagar me kyu megh barsaya
bhed na paaya tera bhed na paaya
data ji tera bhed na paaya

aur garibo ko tarsaaye
bhukha rakhe bikh mangaaye
bhukha rakhe bikh mangaaye
rote huo ka jeb nahi bharta
baba ho jeb nahi bharta
data ho jeb nahi bharta
jale pet ko aur jalaye
jale pet ko aur jalaye
kaisa ye andher hai chhaya
kaisa ye andher hai chhaya
bhed na paaya tera bhed na paaya
data ji tera bhed na paaya
data ji tera bhed na paaya
ho data ji

O Giver, O Giver,
Your mystery, I cannot seize.
Your mystery, I cannot seize,
Cannot seize, your mystery I cannot seize,
Cannot seize, your mystery I cannot seize.
O Giver, your mystery I cannot seize.

To the wealthy, you give such wealth,
As water fills the ocean's breadth.
Gold and silver rain on them, gold and silver,
Fortunes bound within their door.
Why then, on the ocean, does the cloud descend?
Why then, on the ocean, does the cloud descend?
Cannot seize, your mystery I cannot seize,
O Giver, your mystery I cannot seize.

And the poor, you make to thirst,
Hungry they remain, their begging cursed.
Hungry they remain, their begging cursed.
The weeping ones, their pockets stay unfed,
Their pockets stay unfed.
O Giver, their pockets stay unfed.
The burning bellies, you enflame,
The burning bellies, you enflame.
What darkness has cast this shade?
What darkness has cast this shade?
Cannot seize, your mystery I cannot seize,
O Giver, your mystery I cannot seize,
O Giver, your mystery I cannot seize.
O Giver…
