Saare jahan se aacha
Hindustan humara
Na bijli hai na paani
Ye gulistan humara

Lord put money in my bank
And I shall call and earnestly thank
Ma who pestered Pa to bend
To her whims and bitterly end

He always said he'd love me
Forever it was I
Someone very special
I never questioned why
...
A crimson bloom amongst the buds
It’s magic hue caught my eye
A pretty rose yet untouched
Under the open sky
...
I am furious, numb and sore my dear
For this 'nite' I can only shed a tear
Saw two fools trying to test
Who’s the bigger and the best
