*******************************************************************
Kabhi aansoo kabhi khushi baychee,
Hum gareebon nay bekasi baychee !

[Sometimes we sold our tears, sometimes we sold our happiness,
We poor fellows sold our innocence !]

Chand saansay khareednay kay liyey,
Roz thodi see zindagi baychee !

[Just to buy some more breaths,
Everyday we sold a little of our life !]

Jab rulanay lagey mujhay sayey,
Mainay ukta kay roshni baychee !

[When shadows started making me cry,
I got tired and sold the light !]

Ek hum they ki bik gayey khud hi,
Varna duniya nay dosti baychee !

[We are the one who sold ourselves,
Otherwise the rest of the world sold friendship !]

Kabhi aansoo kabhi khushi baychee,
Hum gareebon nay bekasi baychee !
