tabhi aata hai peene aur pilaane ka maja humko
humaare saamne jab koi, tauba karne wala ho
tauba karne wala ho
tauba re tauba chhodo zehar, ye sharaab hai
tauba re tauba chhodo zehar, ye sharaab hai
pee jisne samjho jindgi
pee jisne samjho jindgi
uski kharaab hai

nada tujhe khabar nahi kya ye sharaab hai
nada tujhe khabar nahi kya ye sharaab hai
peekar jara to dekhiye, peekar jara to dekhiye
shay laajawaab hai
nada tujhe khabar nahi kya ye sharaab hai
tauba re tauba chhodo zehar, ye sharaab hai

ise peete hai jo jindgi barbaad karte hai
hazaaro ghar isi ke naam se fariyaad karte hai
isi ki wajah se duniya me laakho jurm hote hai
mujrim hai, mujrim hai
vo mujrim hai jo fir bhi, maykada aabaad karte hai
aabaad karte hai
peena to chhodiye ise chhuna azaab hai
peena to chhodiye ise chhuna azaab hai
pee jisne samjho jindgi
pee jisne samjho jindgi
uski kharaab hai

nada tujhe khabar nahi kya ye sharaab hai
nada tujhe khabar nahi kya ye sharaab hai

hai jo ghamjada , bas hai isi ka aasra usko
jo de aaram gham me
kyu na fir kah de dawa usko
mujhe itna yaki hai, tum agar ek baar pee loge
to fir mumkin nahi, to fir mumkin nahi
to fir mumkin nahi hai ye
ke tum keh do bura isko
ek baar pee ke dekhne me kya hizaab hai
ek baar pee ke, ek baar pee ke
ek baar pee ke dekhne me kya hizaab hai
ek baar pee ke dekhne me kya hizaab hai
peekar jara to dekhiye, peekar jara to dekhiye
shay laajawaab hai

tauba re tauba chhodo zehar, ye sharaab hai
tauba re tauba chhodo zehar, ye sharaab hai

jo hosh tere chhin le, haiwaan bana de
do ghunt hi me jo tera imaan udaa de
mat kar tu nasha aisa tujhe teri kasam hai
pini hai to pee aisi jo insaan bana de
insaan bana de, insaan bana de

sach tumne ye kaha ki nasha may ka hai bura
har bund me hai iski yakinan zehar bhara
lo aaj hum bhi karte hai tauba sharaab se
lo aaj hum bhi karte hai tauba sharaab se
tauba tauba, tauba tauba
tauba tauba, tauba tauba sharaab se
lo aaj hum bhi karte hai tauba sharaab se
aankhe hai jo khol di hai
bahut iska shukriya, shukriya, shukriya
jo hosh me yaha hai wahi kaamyamb hai
jo hosh me yaha hai wahi kaamyamb hai
pee jisne samjho jindgi
pee jisne samjho jindgi
uski kharaab hai
tauba re tauba chhodo zehar, ye sharaab hai
tauba re tauba chhodo zehar, ye sharaab hai

The truest pleasure blooms when we can pour,
When faced with one who vows to forswear,
Vows to forswear, abandon this venom, this wine.
Vows to forswear, abandon this venom, this wine.
They who drink, they ruin life itself,
their fate entwined.

Fool, do you not know what this wine truly is?
Fool, do you not know what this wine truly is?
Taste it once, and you shall see,
A wonder it is, this kiss.
Fool, do you not know what this wine truly is?
Vows to forswear, abandon this venom, this wine.

They who drink it, they lay waste to their lives,
Thousands of homes cry out in its name,
Millions of crimes born of this very blight,
Criminals, criminals,
Are those who still keep the tavern alight.
They keep it alight.
To touch it is torment, they ruin life itself,
They who drink, their fate entwined.

Fool, do you not know what this wine truly is?
Fool, do you not know what this wine truly is?

To the sorrowful, it's the sole refuge,
That offers solace in their despair,
Why then not call it a cure?
I am certain, if once you taste it,
Impossible it becomes, impossible it becomes,
To call it evil, I swear.
What shame in tasting, just once, I implore?
What shame in tasting, just once, just once,
Taste it once, and you shall see,
A wonder it is, this core.

Vows to forswear, abandon this venom, this wine.
Vows to forswear, abandon this venom, this wine.
That steals your senses, and turns you to beast,
That with a sip, steals your faith in the least,
Do not indulge in such intoxicant, I beg,
If you must drink, drink that which makes you human.
Makes you human, makes you human.

True, you say, the intoxication of wine is foul,
Each drop contains a venomous power,
So today, we too, renounce this wine,
So today, we too, renounce this wine.
Repentance, repentance, repentance, repentance,
Repentance, repentance, renounce this wine,
So today, we too, renounce this wine.
Eyes that have opened,
Much gratitude for this, gratitude, gratitude.
Those who are aware here, are the victors,
Those who are aware here, are the victors.
They who drink, they ruin life itself,
their fate entwined.
Vows to forswear, abandon this venom, this wine.
Vows to forswear, abandon this venom, this wine.
