is khel ka kaun hai badshaah
bazi chale par hai laapata
kathputliyan hum sare yahaan
dor hai kiski kisko pataa

khatra khatra hai harpal saanson mein
dekho khatra khatra
naa apni bazi pe itna itra itra
na jane koyi kal ko hoga kya ha kya
dhokha hai raaho pe bikhra bikhra

is khel ka kaun hai badshaah
bazi chale par hai laapata
kathputliyan hum sare yahaan

dor hai kiski kisko pataa
saaf dikhta kuchh nai hai
ek dhuan sa har kahi hai
dagmagana har kadam pe
lazmi hai lazmi hai

ik tinke ki tarha sab
aandhiyo mein ud raha hai
chal chhup ke is jahan se
kon hai jo chal raha hai

har taraf zor ki
chal rahi hai aandhiya

is khel ka kaun hai badshaah
bazi chale par hai laapata
kathputliyan hum sare yahaan
dor hai kiski kisko pataa
