zor ka jhatka haye joro se laga ha laga
shadi ban gayi umar kaid ki saza ha saza
zor ka jhatka haye joro se laga ha laga
shadi ban gayi umar kaid ki saza ha saza
dil me hai udhasi jaan ki pyasi
kab se aankha tum le lo fasi
lakh jano ki hoti hai ye baja ha baja
zor ka jhatka haye joro se laga ha laga
shadi ban gayi umar kaid ki saza ha saza

jiski shadi par jana usko itna samjhana
jiski shadi par jana usko itna samjhana
na kar shado ye barbadi phir na pachtana
jiski shadi par jana usko itna samjhana
na kar shado ye barbadi phir na pachtana
ha moka hai pagle shadi se bach le
samjha le dil tu shadi se bach le
shadi ke mandap se tu khud ko baga baga
zor ka jhatka haye joro se laga ha laga

sabse pehle shadi thi yaro jahan me jisne ki
usko dundho pakdo pito galti usne ki
vo tha sadayi ban ke kasai
usne to sabki lutiya dubayi
pani mile na maro aisi jagah ha jagah
zor ka jhatka haye joro se laga ha laga
shadi ban gayi umar kaid ki saza ha saza
zor ka jhatka haye joro se laga ha laga
shadi ban gayi umar kaid ki saza ha saza
zor ka jhatka haye joro se laga ha laga

A jolt, a crash, with all its might it struck, it struck,
A wedding, turned to life's most binding lock, it locked,
A jolt, a crash, with all its might it struck, it struck,
A wedding, turned to life's most binding lock, it locked.
Despair now dwells, the soul thirsts so,
Better to hang, than wedding's woe.
A million sorrows born of this, I vow, I vow,
A jolt, a crash, with all its might it struck, it struck,
A wedding, turned to life's most binding lock, it locked.

To those who wed, this warning I impart,
To those who wed, this warning to their heart,
Refrain from this, this ruin it will bring,
Refrain from this, or sorrow you will sing.
A chance you have, from weddings flee,
Your heart convince, and then be free.
From wedding's stage, yourself escape you must,
A jolt, a crash, with all its might it struck.

The first to wed, in this world's wide embrace,
The first to wed, find him, and his face,
Then strike, for this, the error of his way,
He, a butcher, brought this disarray.
He, the destroyer, a savage blight,
He drowned us all in endless night.
No water found, strike where the pain may be,
A jolt, a crash, with all its might it struck,
A wedding, turned to life's most binding lock, it locked,
A jolt, a crash, with all its might it struck, it struck,
A wedding, turned to life's most binding lock, it locked,
A jolt, a crash, with all its might it struck.
