o duniawale o dunia walo kaisa tumhara ye sansar hai
o dunia walo kaisa tumhara ye sansar hai
jhuthe ki jeet yaha sache ki har hai
jhuthe ki jeet yaha sache ki har hai
o dunia walo kaisa tumhara ye sansar hai o dunia walo

bade bade bazar saja kar gali gali me dhol baja kar
sona dikhla pital deke gin ke paise pure leke
dil ka sauda jan ka sauda hota hai iman ka sauda
khun pasina bik jata hai maut or jina bik jata hai
puch raha hu tumse bolo kaisa ye bywahar hai
o dunia walo kaisa tumhara ye sansar hai o dunia walo

aasu lelo aahe lelo hasrat lelo chahe lelo
tambe ka ek tukda feko tute dil ki duaye lelo
lut sake ho dunia sari is par bhi takrar hai
o dunia walo kaisa tumhara ye sansar hai o dunia walo

sapno ki dunia ko chhodo asliyat se muh na modo
kab tak jhuti shan rahegi do din to ye jan rahegi
bad samay ka bol raha hai raz ke saye khol raha hai
kath ki handiya jal ke rahengi jhutha ye vyopar hai
o dunia walo kaisa tumhara ye sansar hai o dunia walo

O denizens, O dwellers of the world, what manner of realm is this you've made?
O denizens, what manner of realm is this?
Where falsehood triumphs, and truth is laid to waste.
Where falsehood triumphs, and truth must fall.
O denizens, what manner of realm is this you've made? O denizens.

Great markets erected, drumming through the lanes,
Gold displayed, brass delivered, counting coins to the penny.
The heart's bargain, the soul's transaction, faith itself a commodity,
Blood and sweat are sold and traded, life and death are now on offer.
I ask you now, tell me, what manner of dealings prevail?
O denizens, what manner of realm is this you've made? O denizens.

Take my tears, my sighs, my yearnings, my desires, take them all!
Toss a copper coin, and gather the prayers of a shattered heart.
Having plundered the world entire, still the bickering endures.
O denizens, what manner of realm is this you've made? O denizens.

Abandon the world of dreams, turn not away from what is real.
How long shall false glory endure? This life is but a fleeting dawn.
The passage of time now speaks, unveiling the hidden truths,
The earthen vessel will burn away, this deceitful trade will fade.
O denizens, what manner of realm is this you've made? O denizens.
