use kya farq padta hai
december bit jaane se

yakum tarikh aane se
kisi bhi sal-e-nau ke khair-maqdam par khushi ke shadyane se

surur-o-kaif-o-masti mein mohabbat ke tarane se
club aur hotalon mein wahshiyana raqs par saudaiyon ke thartharane se

use kya farq padta hai
use to har guzarta sal ek jaisa hi lagta hai

wo ek mazdur he jis ki
musalsal bhuk aur iflas se arse se lambi jang jari hai

ki jis ke samne har subh pai-dar-pai mashaqqat ke taqaze hain
kadi mehnat riyazat jehd-e-paiham us ka maslak hai

use kya farq padta hai
calender par nae hindson ki ek tarikh aane se

december bit jaane se
naya ek sal aane se
