The king of the world, he too is but a man,
And the pauper, the beggar, they too are a man.
And the pauper, the beggar, they too are a man.
Oh, lord of the world, the king is but a man.

Dead by sin, he is still but a man,
The one who devours the chicken, he too is a man.
Chewing his morsels, he too is a man,
Chewing his morsels, he too is a man.
Oh, lord of the world, the king is but a man.

How to make a man, a friend of man?
Between men, there is a wall built by man.
In the station, I am a man, arrested, a man.
And the station's keeper, a master, a man.
The one who laughs at me, he too is a man,
The one who laughs at me, he too is a man.
Oh, lord of the world, the king is but a man.

Money makes a man do as it wills,
A man pulls the rickshaw, instead of horses, it kills.
Each man is burdened by the cry for wealth,
The burden of money, oh, the cries of wealth,
The world's fair, oh, the cries of wealth,
Comes alone, oh, the cries of wealth,
Leaves alone, oh, the cries of wealth,
Kohl for the eyes, oh, the cries of wealth,
Toothpaste for the teeth, oh, the cries of wealth,
Showing teeth, oh, the cries of wealth,
Life's in peril, oh, the cries of wealth,
You alone save us, oh, the cries of wealth,
Arrest, oh, the cries of wealth, bombing, oh, the cries of wealth,
Worldliness, oh, the cries of wealth, black market, oh, the cries of wealth,
Betrayal, oh, the cries of wealth, oh, cries of wealth,
Oh, cries of wealth, oh, cries of wealth,
Oh, cries of wealth,
All who do these things, they too are a man,
All who do these things, they too are a man.
Oh, lord of the world, the king is but a man.

Each man is burdened by the cry for wealth,
For money, a man makes a monkey dance, it stealth.
I too am a man, my name is Chakkram,
To Hindus, Ram Ram, to Muslims, Salaam.
Two boots, one suit, that's how I roam,
A man is enslaved by the atom bomb's home.
The one who craves for food, he too is a man,
The one who craves for food, he too is a man.
Oh, lord of the world, the king is but a man,
The king of the world, he too is but a man.
