bawdi bawdi
sabi collector sabi commissioner
sabi minister mere hai
dawa khana police thana court barister mere hai
kahi ko phir dhake khaun dhake nahi ho na re
hum to apni bawdi lenge
bawdi humko hona re, bawdi humko hona re
bawdi humko hona re, bawdi humko hona re

ye yojana woh scheman tandano pe tandane
apno ki kawali yaro ghaplo ki hi hai tane
arrey ghaplo ki hi hai tane
arrey aisi tane tandano humko nahi khona re
hum to apni bawdi lenge
bawdi humko hona re, bawdi humko hona re
bawdi humko hona re, bawdi humko hona re

arrey jan se pyara hind hamara democracy hai abad
phir bhi ladna kyun padta hai kyun karni padti pharayad
jan se pyara hind hamara democracy hai abad
phir bhi ladna kyun padta hai kyun karni padti pharayad
sabun le kar hath mein nikle system ko hai dhona re
hum to apni bawdi lenge
bawdi humko hona re, bawdi humko hona re
bawdi humko hona re, bawdi humko hona re

fatak ke le le, ghatak ke le le
atak ke le le, bhatak ke le le
jhatak ke le le apna hakk
saari duniya haath mein hogi
kyun laata hai mann mein shakk
baarish ki manind baras ja
baarish ki manind baras ja
phasle tujhko bauna re
hum to apni bawdi lenge
bawdi humko hona re, bawdi humko hona re
bawdi humko hona re, bawdi humko hona re

rakko nakko heera moti, nai modhna sona re
hum to apni bawdi lenge, bawdi humko hona re
arre hum to apni bawdi lenge
bawdi humko hona re, bawdi humko hona re
bawdi humko hona re, bawdi humko hona re
bawdi, bawdi

The well, the well,
All collectors, all commissioners,
All ministers are mine.
Medicine, the police station, the court, the barrister, are mine.
Why then hide, who should hide, no need to be afraid.
We will take our own well.
To be the well, we must become,
To be the well, we must become,
To be the well, we must become,
To be the well, we must become.

These schemes, those scams, on tangled threads they weave,
The ballads of our own, O friends, are but the chants of deceit.
Ah, the chants of deceit they are,
Such tangled chants, we will not lose ourselves.
We will take our own well.
To be the well, we must become,
To be the well, we must become,
To be the well, we must become,
To be the well, we must become.

Our India, dearer than life, her democracy is flourishing,
Yet why must we fight, why must we plead?
Our India, dearer than life, her democracy is flourishing,
Yet why must we fight, why must we plead?
With soap in hand, emerge, to wash the system clean.
We will take our own well.
To be the well, we must become,
To be the well, we must become,
To be the well, we must become,
To be the well, we must become.

Gather with a snap, consume with a gulp,
Grasp with a hold, wander and then take,
Shake it loose, your right to claim.
The whole world will be in your hands.
Why bring doubt into the mind?
Like rain, come pouring down,
Like rain, come pouring down,
The harvest will be yours to be sown.
We will take our own well.
To be the well, we must become,
To be the well, we must become,
To be the well, we must become,
To be the well, we must become.

Keep not, hoard not, diamonds and pearls, nor desire gold.
We will take our own well, to be the well, we must become.
Ah, we will take our own well.
To be the well, we must become,
To be the well, we must become,
To be the well, we must become,
To be the well, we must become.
The well, the well.
