La la la … O.. O.. O..
Dhobi ka kutta jaise ghaat ka na ghar ka
Poori tarah na idhar ka, na udhar ka
Sun le nikhattu tera wohi to haal hai

Zindagi ki race mein jo munh utha ke dauda
Zindagi ne maari laat peechhe chhoda
Tu hai wo tattu
Gadhe si jiski chaal hai

Pyaar mein thenga
Bar mein thenga
Inki botal bhi goron ki ghulaam hai

Roothi hai mehbooba
Roothi roothi sharaab hai
Hey aam hindustani
Teri kismat kharaab hai

Roothi hai mehbooba
Roothi roothi sharaab hai
Hey aam hindustani
Teri kismat kharaab hai

Aasman se tu yun gira
Khajoor pe tu atka
Tere haalaat ne utha ke tujhko patka
Ki aisi champi, ki tere hosh udd gaye
Bewafaai dekh ke jo aayi tujhko hichki
Chaudi chhaati teri chutkiyon mein pichki
Gham ki batti, muaah, mili to baal jhad gaye
Pyaar mein thenga
Bar mein thenga
Inki botal bhi goron ki ghulam hai

Roothi hai mehbooba
Roothi rooti sharaab hai
Hey aam hindustaani
Teri kismat kharaab hai..

Roothi hai mehbooba
Roothi rooti sharaab hai
Hey aam hindustaani
Teri kismat kharaab hai..

Aadmi nahi tu samjhe khud ko machhli
Ulti ganga mein hai tairne ki khujli
Par yeh hukoomat jo hai magarmachh hai
Laalach ne tujhko aisi patti padhaai
Khwaahish ne li hai degchi kadhaai
Taqdeer teri abhi bhi chammach mein hai

Pyaar mein thenga
Bar mein thenga
Inki botal bhi goron ki ghulam hai

Roothi hai mehbooba
Roothi rooti sharaab hai
Hey aam hindustaani
Teri kismat kharaab hai..
