The Lyrics and its Translation

Oye aiwe duniya dewe duhai,
jhootha pondi shor
te apne dil to pooch ke vekho
kaun nahi hai chor

The world appeals for no reason
the liar makes hue and cry

Why don't you ask your heart

who is not a thief!

te ki mein jhooth bolya
koi na
te ki mein mein kufr tolya
koi na
te mein ki zeher gholya

Hey have I lied?
No!
Hey have I spread disbelief?
No!
Hey have I poisoned?
No!

Oye hath dooje ka maar maar ke
ban de log ameer
mein ainu kainda chori
dunika kendi taqdeer

By pulling stuff from others hands
people become rich
I call it thievery

the world calls it destiny

te ki mein jhooth bolya
koi na
te ki mein mein kufr tolya
koi na
te mein ki zeher gholya

Hey have I lied?
No!
Hey have I spread disbelief?
No!
Hey have I poisoned?
No!

O hut ke
Paraji bach ke

Hey move aside
Sir, be careful!

O vekhe pandit gyaani-dhyaani
daya-dharam de bande
Ram naam japte
khaave goshala de chande

I have seen wise and pious

men of religion and kindness

They chant the name of Ram
and hoard all the charity

te ki mein jhooth bolya
koi na
te ki mein mein kufr tolya
koi na
te mein ki zeher gholya

Hey have I lied?
No!
Hey have I spread disbelief?
No!
Hey have I poisoned?
No!

O hut ke
Paraji bach ke

Hey move aside
Sir, be careful!

O sachche phansi chade vekhe

jhoota mauj udave
Loki kende rab di maya
Mein kenda anyay

I have seen honest people hanged
while the culprit enjoys life
People say it god's will
I call it injustice

te ki mein jhooth bolya
koi na
te ki mein mein kufr tolya
koi na
te mein ki zeher gholya

Hey have I lied?
No!
Hey have I spread disbelief?
No!
Hey have I poisoned?
No!

O hut ke
Paraji bach ke

Hey move aside
Sir, be careful!
