duniya banane vale kya tere man me samayi
kahe ko duniya banayi
tune kahe ko duniya banayi
duniya banane vale kya tere man me samayi
kahe ko duniya banayi
tune kahe ko duniya banayi

kahe banae tune mati ke putale
dharati ye pyari pyari mukhde ye ujale
kahe banaya tune duniya ka khela
kahe banaya tune duniya ka khela
jisame lagaya javani ka mela
gup-chup tamasha dekhe vah re teri khudayi
kaheko duniya banayi tune
kahe ko duniya banayi duniya banane vale kya tere man me samayi
kahe ko duniya banayi tune
kahe ko duniya banayi

tu bhi to tadpa hoga man ko banakar
tufa ye pyar ka man me chhupakar
koi chhavi to hogi ankho me teri
koi chhavi to hogi ankho me teri
aansu bhi chhalke honge palko se teri
bol kya sujhi tujhko kahe ko prit jagayi
kahe ko duniya banayi tune kahe ko duniya banai
duniya banane vale kya tere man me samayi
kahe ko duniya banayi tune
kahe ko duniya banayi

prit banake tune jina sikhaya hasana sikhaya
rona sikhaya
jivan ke path par mit milaye
jivan ke path par mit milaye
mit milake tune sapne jagae
sapne jagake tune kahe ko de di judayi
kahe ko duniya banayi tune
kaahe ko duniya banayi
duniya banane vale kya tere man me samayi
kahe ko duniya banayi tune
kahe ko duniya banayi

O Maker of Worlds, what stirred within your heart?
Why did you fashion this world, this art?
Why did you fashion this world?
O Maker of Worlds, what stirred within your heart?
Why did you fashion this world, this art?
Why did you fashion this world?

Why did you mold these figures of clay?
This earth so dear, these faces so gay?
Why did you weave this drama so vast?
Why did you weave this drama, built to last?
Where youth's carnival plays in its prime,
A silent spectacle, oh, your sublime design!
Why did you fashion this world, this art?
Why did you fashion this world?
O Maker of Worlds, what stirred within your heart?
Why did you fashion this world, this art?
Why did you fashion this world?

You too must have yearned, creating the soul,
Concealing love's tempest, making it whole.
Some image must have danced within your sight,
Some image must have danced, bathed in light.
Tears must have fallen from your gaze above,
Tell us, what prompted you to kindle love?
Why did you fashion this world, this art?
Why did you fashion this world?
O Maker of Worlds, what stirred within your heart?
Why did you fashion this world, this art?
Why did you fashion this world?

Love you gave, taught us how to live,
how to laugh, and how to grieve.
On life's path, you brought us dear friends,
On life's path, where all friendship transcends.
With friends you sparked a dream so bold,
With dreams you woke, why then, did you then part hold?
Why did you fashion this world, this art?
Why did you fashion this world?
O Maker of Worlds, what stirred within your heart?
Why did you fashion this world, this art?
Why did you fashion this world?
