They dance the circus of life, bowing to all they meet,
They dance the circus of life, bowing to all they meet,
Though the whip cracks, voiceless, the dream of Turram Khan, a plea,
A king's dream, a common dream, Tu Tu Tu Turram Khan, you see.

A life of two halves, a joining,
Little left in the hand, bemoaning,
Failing at every task, Turram Khan's dream, a decree,
Tu Tu Tu Turram Khan, a king's dream, a common dream, you see.

He smiles through helplessness, weeping in joy's embrace,
He smiles through helplessness, weeping in joy's embrace,
Greatness blooms in poverty, Turram Khan's dream, a place,
Tu Tu Tu Turram Khan, a king's dream, a common dream, you see.

One day my star will shine, sweetness in the air,
One day my star will shine,
Unbridled dreams he weaves, Turram Khan's dream, a prayer,
Tu Tu Tu Turram Khan, a king's dream, a common dream, you see.
Tu Tu Tu Turram Khan, you see.
