shehar akela hai, lakh hai galiyan
manzil to dikhti, raah na miliyan
shehar akela hai, lakh hai galiyan
manzil to dikhti, raah na miliyan
dhoop ka chaon ka jaal pasara hai
khwab ko seecha tune, aas ko mara hai
gum ko khushi ko ek kaate pe na tola
maula maula maula maula maula maula maula
ajab teri karni maula
ajab teri karni maula
ajab teri karni maula
ajab meri bharni maula

sanso ka rela chalta hi jaye
dil ye dhadkhne se baaz na aaye
sanso ka rela chalta hi jaye
dil ye dhadkhne se baaz na aaye
mann ke chand pe badri khayalo ki
nange zehan pe hai barkha sawalo ki
kal ka woh tala tune kal hi kyun na khola
maula maula maula maula maula maula maula
ajab teri karni maula
ajab teri karni maula
ajab teri karni maula
ajab teri karni maula
ajab meri bharni maula

waqt ki lai pe dekho jhule
jhule jivan hi dola
waqt ki lai pe dekho jhule
jhule jivan hi dola
ajab teri karni maula
ajab teri karni maula
ajab teri karni maula
ajab meri bharni maula
ajab tera khela maula
ajab tera mera maula
ajab ye jhamela maula
ajab tera dhanda maula
ajab mein bhi banda maula
ajab teri karni maula
ajab teri karni maula
ajab meri bharni maula
waqt ki lai pe dekho
jhule jhule jivan hi dola
waqt ki lai pe dekho jhule
jhule jivan hi dola

Strange are your ways, O Lord,
Strange are your ways, O Lord,
Strange are your ways, O Lord,
Strange are your ways, O Lord,
Strange is my offering, Lord,
Strange are your ways, O Lord.
See how we swing on time's rhythm,
Life itself sways and trembles.
See how we swing on time's rhythm,
Life itself sways and trembles.

The city is lonely, with a million lanes,
The destination is seen, but the path remains.
The city is lonely, with a million lanes,
The destination is seen, but the path remains.
A web of sun and shade you have cast,
Nurturing dreams, killing hope so fast.
You weigh not sorrow and joy on the same scale,
Maula, Maula, Maula, Maula, Maula, Maula, Maula.
Strange are your ways, O Lord,
Strange are your ways, O Lord,
Strange are your ways, O Lord,
Strange is my offering, Lord.

The river of breath flows ever on,
The heart refuses to cease its dawn.
The river of breath flows ever on,
The heart refuses to cease its dawn.
Clouded the moon of the mind with thought,
Naked the soul, with questions brought.
Why did you not unlock tomorrow's lock, yesterday?
Maula, Maula, Maula, Maula, Maula, Maula, Maula.
Strange are your ways, O Lord,
Strange are your ways, O Lord,
Strange are your ways, O Lord,
Strange are your ways, O Lord,
Strange is my offering, Lord.

See how we swing on time's rhythm,
Life itself sways and trembles.
See how we swing on time's rhythm,
Life itself sways and trembles.
Strange are your ways, O Lord,
Strange are your ways, O Lord,
Strange are your ways, O Lord,
Strange is my offering, Lord.
Strange is your play, O Lord,
Strange is yours and mine, O Lord,
Strange is this chaos, O Lord,
Strange is your trade, O Lord,
Strange am I, your servant, Lord.
Strange are your ways, O Lord,
Strange are your ways, O Lord,
Strange is my offering, Lord.
See how we swing on time's rhythm,
Life itself sways and trembles.
