na do hum ko ilzaam
ke hum peete hain
na do hum ko ilzaam
ke hum peete hain
rehne do pee ke hi to
janab hum jeete hain
na do hum ko ilzaam
ke hum peete hain

zindagi se hume bhi bahut pyar tha
hosh mein reh ke par jeena dushwar tha
hosh mein reh ke par jeena dushwar tha
chhodo na wo zindagi hain ajaab
hum jeete hain
na do hum ko ilzaam
ke hum peete hain
rehne do pee ke hi to
janab hum jeete hain

mera ban ke mujhe tokta jo koi
main na aati yaha rokta jo koi
main na aati yaha rokta jo koi
chhodo na ye ghamo ka hisab
hum jeete hain
na do hum ko ilzaam
ke hum peete hain
rehne do pee ke hi to
jana hum jeete hain

pura jab tak irada karenge nahin
pee ke bhi ye zaher hum marenge nahin
pee ke bhi ye zaher hum marenge nahin
hone do haal apna kharab
hum jeete hain
na do hum ko ilzaam
ke hum peete hain
rehne do pee ke hi to
jana hum jeete hain
na do hum ko ilzaam
ke hum peete hain

Do not cast blame,
For we drink.
Do not cast blame,
For we drink.
Let it be, for in drink alone,
Sir, do we truly drink.
Do not cast blame,
For we drink.

We too loved life,
But to live sane was a strife.
To live sane was a strife.
Forget not that life, a torment,
We live.
Do not cast blame,
For we drink.
Let it be, for in drink alone,
Sir, do we truly drink.

Had someone chided, become mine,
Had someone stopped, I wouldn't align.
Had someone stopped, I wouldn't align.
Forget this reckoning of sorrow,
We live.
Do not cast blame,
For we drink.
Let it be, for in drink alone,
Sir, do we truly drink.

Until resolve is complete,
Even drinking this poison, we won’t retreat.
Even drinking this poison, we won’t retreat.
Let our state be as ruinous as can be,
We live.
Do not cast blame,
For we drink.
Let it be, for in drink alone,
Sir, do we truly drink.
Do not cast blame,
For we drink.
