phir chahe to na aana o aan ban wale
jhutha hi wada kar le sachi jaban wale
chale jayiho bedarda mai roye marungi
chale jayiho bedarda mai roye marungi
chale jayiho bedarda

kali kali ratiya kaise bitau
kali kali ratiya ji kali kali ratiya
kali kali ratiya kaise bitau
virah ke sapne mai dekh darungi
chale jayiho bedarda mai roye marungi
chale jayiho bedarda mai roye marungi
chale jayiho bedarda

khudkushi ka aap par ilzam dharte jayenge
hum to marte hai magar badnam karte jayenge
khud gala katenge lekar daste najuk se churi
dil salamat to hai ye ek kaam karte jayenge
chale jayiho bedarda chale jayiho bedarda
mai roye marungi chale jayiho bedarda
mai roye marungi chale jayiho bedarda

jhuthe wado se jale dil aur jalte jayenge
chite padte jayenge shole nikalte jayenge
haye zamana aapka jo jurm chahe kijiye
karwate apni jagah hum bhi badalte jayenge
chale jayiho bedarda chale jayiho bedarda
mai roye marungi chale jayiho bedarda
mai roye marungi chale jayiho bedarda

Come, if you must, with pride’s fleeting reign,
Or speak false vows with a tongue untrue again.
Depart, cruel one, though my heart may cease,
Depart, cruel one, and find its peace,
Depart, cruel one.

These darkened nights, how will I endure?
Dark, dark nights, oh, dark, dark nights, how to secure?
These darkened nights, how will I reside?
In separation's dreams, I'll cower and hide.
Depart, cruel one, though my heart may cease,
Depart, cruel one, and find its peace,
Depart, cruel one.

Though blame's dark shadow, on you it shall fall,
As we fade away, defamed by all.
With delicate hands, we'll sever the tie,
If the heart still beats, this task we will try.
Depart, cruel one, oh, depart, cruel one,
Though my heart may cease, oh, depart, cruel one,
Depart, cruel one.

False promises ignite, our hearts ablaze,
As embers fall, and flames rise in a haze.
The world is yours, to wreak havoc as you please,
We too will turn, and seek our ease.
Depart, cruel one, oh, depart, cruel one,
Though my heart may cease, oh, depart, cruel one,
Depart, cruel one.
