Meri laado da rang gora, laal kude

Meri laado da rang gora, laal kude

Main taan raniaan athere gulaal kude

Meri laado da rang gora, laal kude

Rang ka khel safed aur kaala

Manushya budhi ko kshudra kar daala

Upri upasthiti pe kaayam jo duniya hai

Badal ke usko daal uspar ujaala

Vartmaan pe ateet ka saaya

Chubhti jo dil mein us baat ko chupaya

Saavli ye kaaya, lagti thi chaaya

Andhrooni shakti k kisne sataya?

Roop aur rang kuch aisa samaaya

Chhoti umar se hi man mein basaya

Tan ko mere kuch aisa dikhaya

Kaali hoon main iska ehsaas dilaya

Karti bhi kya umar bas thi panch

Rangeen thi duniya par main lagti daag

Jubaan se chalaate wo aisa baan

Tez cheer ke nikalte jo karke vaar

Sameti maine ye tukde hazaar

Dekho dabai yaadon se door kahin khoo chuke

Jo jald hi garv ko ghayal kar paaye

Rang anarth yeh kaun ab samjhaaye?

Meri laado da rang gora, laal kude

Meri laado da rang gora, laal kude

Main taan raniaan athere gulaal kude

Meri laado da rang gora, laal kude

If i could board a Time Machine

I would tke it for ride just put me in

Strapped in my seat, countdown begins

I would rewrite the chapter about my skin

Pick me up i would dust off my shoulders

Tell me i’m proud ’cause i learned to be bolder

From a far it’s the scene you’ll see

A little Hindu kid trying hard to be free

Pradakshina lungi main toh bhagwan

Nanhe kadam lete tera hi naam

Suna hai maine sach karte ho khwab

Dil se main maanu rang mera kharab

Rok lun khud ko keh ke yeh vyarth hai

Tu man se nek toh rang anarth hai

Sab hai ek behta toh rakt hai

Himmat samhal ye tera hi waqt hai

Meri laado da rang gora, laal kude

Meri laado da rang gora, laal kude

Main taan raniaan athere gulaal kude

Meri laado da rang gora, laal kude
