sadar ke sonar ka solah anah sona
sadar ke sonar ka solah anah sona
chale ga galega dalega
jab ye sona, haye
rani ki chand kul
pair me pad kar
vibo ke te so rang
pairo me ghir kar
dilli ki galiyo me
chalega jab yeh sona
raat din chun chun chun
padosan chun, chun chun
ke kano me chun chun chun
pale ga fale ga jab ye sona

ambiya ilaiji
daal cheeni aur kesar
sukhaye gi tanu karol
bhag ke chath par

marthban se afwa uthe gi
patan peeche pach
jab aayegi chath par
tanu ke sare bahani
jayenge chit chit
chit chit chit chit kar
tab mannu bhaiya ka kari hai

tab mannu bhaiya ka kari hai

jab dilli ke mixer me
ghut jaa bhe ghut jaa bhe
jab dilli ke mixer me
ghut ja bhe kanpur ki bhang
jab dilli ke upar
chad jaye kanpur ka rang
jab qutb se hi upar jaye
jaye kanpur ki patang
tab mannu bhaiya ka kari hai
mannu bhaiya ka kari hai
tab mannu bhaiya ka kari hai
mannu bhaiya ka kari hai

jab tanu kabi rooth jaye
sharma ji ki baah pe
tab jamuna ji ka pani lake
sarsayia ghat pe
jab tanu ka bi rooth jaye
sharma ji ki baah pe
tab jamuna ji ka paani lake
sarsayia ghat pe
jab kanpur ka pyar
jab kanpur ka chand
chamki hai dilli ke raat pe
tab mannu bhaiya ka kari hai

The goldsmith of the city, sixteen annas gold,
The goldsmith of the city, sixteen annas gold,
Shall walk, shall melt, shall be cast,
When this gold, alas,

Falls at the Queen's moon-cool foot,
Falls upon the feet, colors of Vibho,
Through Delhi's lanes this gold shall tread,
Day and night, चुन चुन चुन,
The neighbor, चुन चुन चुन,
Into ears, चुन चुन चुन,
Shall flourish, shall thrive, when this gold,
Then what will Manu, brother, do?
Then what will Manu, brother, do?
Then what will Manu, brother, do?
Then what will Manu, brother, do?

Mangoes, cardamom,
Cinnamon and saffron,
Tanu will dry them, on the roof,
On the roof, on the roof.
Then, from the book I'll not,
Unleash the dogs,
From the book I'll not,
Unleash the dogs,
From the jars a rumor will rise,
Behind the fall, the fall,
When it reaches the roof,
All of Tanu's excuses,
Will shatter, चित चित चित,
Then what will Manu, brother, do?
Then what will Manu, brother, do?
Then what will Manu, brother, do?
Then what will Manu, brother, do?

When in Delhi's mist,
It suffocates, suffocates,
Kanpur's bhang,
When Kanpur's color,
Climbs over Delhi,
When from Qutub itself, rises,
Rises Kanpur's kite,
Then what will Manu, brother, do?
Then what will Manu, brother, do?

When Tanu ever gets angry,
On Sharma Ji's arm,
Then taking Jamuna's water,
To the Sarsia ghat,
When Tanu ever gets angry,
On Sharma Ji's arm,
Then taking Jamuna's water,
To the Sarsia ghat,
When Kanpur's love,
Shines upon Delhi's night,
Then what will Manu, brother, do?
Then what will Manu, brother, do?

Then what will Manu, brother, do?
Then what will Manu, brother, do?
Then what will Manu, brother, do?
Now what will Manu, brother, do?
