Gaano ko ratta fir kar kar ke gaate

Joote bhi same hum ek jaisa laate
[Even when we buying shoes, we always choose the same]
Gang bhi same hum dono banate
[Even people be the same when we choose gangs]
Dushman bhi same hum dono banate

Seekhte hum na kabhi kisi se haare

Aunty nahi kehti yeh ladke bekaar hai
