| Bin pani ka Dhobitalao dekho, dekho | Look at a washerman's lake without water |
| Ee haan reti pe pani ka bhav dekho, dekho | Look at the price of water, here on the sand |
| Ghodon pe karodon ka daao dekho | Look at the gambling on horse races |
| Haseeno se sabhi ka lagao dekho | Look everyone here likes beautiful women |

| Nayi hai tarang | There are new waves |
| Nayi hai umang | There are new desires |
| Koi kanjoos hai | Some here are miser |
| Koi hai malang | Some here are carefree |
| Machi hai yahan dekho aapas mein jung | Here people fight amongst each other |
| Haan haan aapas mein jung | Yes, here people fight amongst each other |
| Haan haan aapas mein jung | Yes, here people fight amongst each other |
| De ghuma ke! | Throw a punch! |

|
| Arre samandar mein jaise hai ghul gayi bhang | It's like the sea is intoxicated |
| Yeh rang dekh ke main ho gaya dang | I'm surprised looking at this colour |
| Toh kya samjhe | So what did you understand |
