| Chanchal shok haseeno ki dekho yahan bharmar hai | Look, there are many beautiful girls here |
| Husn ke sare rangon ki Chowpatty pe bahaar hai | All the colourful bodies are at Chowpatty |
| Sone chandi ke upar bani huyi yeh bastiyan | These huts are made on top of gold and silver |
| In galiyon in kucho mein rehti hai filmi hastiyan | The movie stars live in these small streets |
| Unko toh yeh swarg lage jinki jeb mein maal hai | Those who have money, feel it's like heaven |
| Mara mara phirta hai joh kadka kangal hai | The one who is poor roams around here and there |
| Lakhon ki rozi roti, lakhon ki taqdeer hai | For millions it's their job and destiny |
| Yahan joh aaya gaya nahi, shehar nahi zanjeer hai | The one who comes here doesn't leave and gets locked in the shackles |
| Hum joh aaye ee nagri mein | When I came to this city |
| Apni tabiyat rang gayi | Then even my health got great |
|
|
| Bam bam bam bam Bambai | Bom bom bom bom Bombay |
| Bambai humko jam gayi | I've settled well in Bombay |
| Bam bam bam bam Bambai | Bom bom bom bom Bombay |
| Bambai humko jam gayi | I've settled well in Bombay |

| Unchi unchi buildingey, rehne ko par ghar nahi | There are tall buildings, but no home to stay |
| Itne sare raaste, chalne ko par dagar nahi | There are so many roads, but not a path to walk |
| Roti ki na baat kar pani bikta hai yahan | Forget food, even water is sold here |
| Dharti sari bik chuki, bech rahe hai aasmaan | The land has been sold, they're selling the sky |
| Paisa sabka maibaap, paisa hi bhagwan hai | Money is god and everything |
| Paise ke peeche peeche bhaag raha insaan hai | Humans are running behind money |
| Line mein kat jati hai insaano ki zindagi | People spend their lives standing in a line |
| Dekho jeene ke liye mar gaya kitna aadmi | Look, humans here are dying only to live |
| Dekh ke aisi haalat bhaiya | Brother, looking at this situation |
| Aankh hamari nam gayi | My eyes are full of tears |
|
|
| Bam bam bam bam Bambai | Bom bom bom bom Bombay |
| Bambai humko jam gayi | I've settled well in Bombay |
| Bam bam bam bam Bambai | Bom bom bom bom Bombay |
| Bambai humko jam gayi | I've settled well in Bombay |
| Dekh ke ee Bambai ka nazara | Looking at these sceneries of Bombay |
| Dil ki dhadkan tham gayi | My heartbeats have stopped |
|
|
| Bam bam bam bam Bambai | Bom bom bom bom Bombay |
| Bambai humko jam gayi | I've settled well in Bombay |
| Bam bam bam bam Bambai | Bom bom bom bom Bombay |
| Bambai humko jam gayi, jam gayi | I've settled well in Bombay |
| Aa ha Bambai jam gayi | Oh my, I've settled well in Bombay |
| Wah re bhaiya, jam gayi Bambai | It's great brother, I've settled well in Bombay |
