aai bala laho vala aankh ladi are ha ha ladi
o bachale hume upar vale ek idhar ek udhar
o chhupale hume upar vale aai bala laho vala

aai hai musibat tal tu beta chal koi chal tu
puch nahi mera hal tu are in pe ab koi jadu dal tu
mar gaye ji dar gaye ji jaye kaha hum
haye kaisi ghadi are maut khadi
o uthale hume upar vale ek idhar ek udhar
o chhupale hume upar vale aai bala laho vala
aai bala laho vala gir mai challa tham lo
bete ram ka nam lo santi se bahi kam lo
inke charn tham lo tham lo tham lo
are allah miya jaye kaha tu hi bata ab
are khade khade aaj mare o bulale hume upar vale
ek idhar ek udhar o chhupale hume upar vale aai bala laho vala

duniya hai kya are pagal khana
very good isse achha kya are jailkhana
very good mile vaha kya
are aabo dana very good
chhe mahine bad are lot aana
are bas teri ki vo divane

A storm descends, a tempest's call, eyes locked, alas, they're bound.
Oh, shelter us, Almighty One, from shadows that surround.
Oh, hide us from this rising fear, a storm descends, alas, they're bound.

Misfortune's here, deflect its sting, my son, a plan devise.
Don't ask of me, my plight, don't cling, cast magic in their eyes.
We're lost, we're scared, where can we flee?
In this hour, death does stand,
Oh, lift us up, Almighty One, from shadows that surround.
Oh, hide us from this rising fear, a storm descends, alas, they're bound.
A storm descends, alas, they're bound, I fall, now hold me fast.
My son, take Ram's name in your sound, let peace forever last.
Embrace their feet, embrace them all.
Oh, Allah, where can we now roam?
Standing here, we perish now,
Oh, call us up, Almighty One, from shadows that surround.
Oh, hide us from this rising fear, a storm descends, alas, they're bound.

The world, a madhouse, what is it?
Very good, what's better still? A prison's pit.
Very good, what do you find?
Water and grain, very good.
Even after months, you'll return.
Oh, your madness, they are insane.
