beparda najar ayi jo kal chand biwiya
akbar jamin me gairat koni se gad gaya
pucha jo maine apka parda wo kya hua
kehne lagi ke akal pe mardo ke pad gaya

niklo na benakab
niklo na benakab jamana kharab hai
niklo na benakab jamana kharab hai
aur uspe ye shabab jamana kharab hai

sab kuch hame khabar hai nasihat na kijiye
sab kuch hame khabar hai nasihat na kijiye
sab kuch hame khabar hai nasihat na kijiye
sab kuch hame khabar hai nasihat na kijiye
kya honge ham kharab jamana kharab hai
niklo na benakab jamana kharab hai

rashid tum aa gaye ho na akhir fareb me
rashid tum aa gaye ho na akhir fareb me
rashid tum aa gaye ho na akhir fareb me
rashid tum aa gaye ho na akhir fareb me
kehte na the janab jamana kharab hai
niklo na benakab jamana kharab hai
jamana kharab hai jamana kharab hai
jamana kharab hai

Yesterday, unveiled, I saw a few wives,
Akbar, into the earth, shame did he grave.
I asked, "Where is your veil, your hidden lives?"
They said, "It fell, upon the men's minds, enslaved."

Do not step forth, unveiled,
This world is a ruin, a wasteland.
Do not step forth, unveiled,
And on top of that, youth itself is a wasteland.

We know all, we know all, give no counsel,
We know all, we know all, give no counsel,
We know all, we know all, give no counsel,
We know all, we know all, give no counsel,
How could we not be ruined? This world is a ruin.
Do not step forth, unveiled, this world is a ruin.

Rashid, you've fallen, haven't you, into deceit?
Rashid, you've fallen, haven't you, into deceit?
Rashid, you've fallen, haven't you, into deceit?
Rashid, you've fallen, haven't you, into deceit?
Didn't I say, sir, this world is a ruin?
Do not step forth, unveiled, this world is a ruin.
This world is a ruin, this world is a ruin.
This world is a ruin.
