Vaishnava Jana To

[Bridge]
Vaishnava jana to tene kahiye je
Pida parayi jaane re
Par dukhe upkaar kare to ye
Man abhimaan na ane re

[Verse 1]
Fascists or nepotists, never shrouded with guilt
‘Cause how’d you even pick a side when you’re surrounded by filth
Hands that need books holding lathis and knives
And the masquerade in khakis and whites
Now they can’t stand it like an angry paraplegic
When your shots at them are accurate like Maradona free-kick
They promise me death, provide me with threats
For expressing freely could leave me with a price on my head
Slave to the system, started with the shaving of wool
Before parading these blind sheep to the plate of a wolf
Women harassed by assailants as they prey vacant streets
With cops that are mad crooked like Ajay Devgan’s teeth
These mascots of god with the passion for fraud
Beefing over temples and going ham over mosques
They got money to kill those just relishing food
And got that cash for ads but not developing schools
Put the youth in conundrum, removing their gumption
Seduce them with guns and with lucid instructions
Recruit the poor, produce goons in abundance
But nah, I’m just cuckoo with the stupid assumption

[Hook]
Hey Allah, Hey Rabb, Hey Ram
Tere thekedaar hai kyun beimaan
Hey Allah, Hey Rabb, Hey Ram
Tere lekar naam kare badnaam
Hey Allah, Hey Rabb, Hey Ram
Tere thekedaar hai kyun beimaan
Hey Allah, Hey Rabb, Hey Ram
Tere lekar naam kare badnaam

[Bridge]
Vaishnava jana to tene kahiye je
Pida parayi jaane re
Vaishnava jana to tene kahiye je
Pida parayi jaane re

[Verse 2]
Tonight the nation wants to know who’s a nationalist?
Un equipped students or unemployment graduates?
Agenda filled debates, found to be inaccurate
With dying farmers shouting louder than the panelists
Bending and spinning facts like googly pitch
But the truth is hard to miss like a Bruce Lee kick
Engage the demographics with fictional news
Then enrage and tell the masses, with diction they use
To hate, discrimination and be vile and brawl
These tactics, smeared across till we divided and fall
Mile tweets land you in jail, apocalypse reign
And free speech stays buried like a fossil remain
What happened to us?
We lack compassion and thus
The world is ’bout to be all ashes and dust
Selling unrest throughout, using war as a product
Demand meets supply, with the bodies of Martyrs

Par dukhe upkaar kare to ye
Man abhimaan na ane re
Vaishnava jana to tene kahiye je
Pida parayi jaane re
Vaishnava jana to tene kahiye je
Pida parayi jaane re

[Hook]
Hey Allah, Hey Rabb, Hey Ram
Tere thekedaar hai kyun beimaan
Hey Allah, Hey Rabb, Hey Ram
Tere lekar naam kare badnaam
Hey Allah, Hey Rabb, Hey Ram
Tere thekedaar hai kyun beimaan
Hey Allah, Hey Rabb, Hey Ram
Tere lekar naam kare badnaam

[Outro]
I know, I know, I know
Tomorrow’s another day (another day)
I hope, I hope, I hope
Tomorrow’s a better day
And I know, I know, I know
Tomorrow’s another day (another day)
And I hope, I hope, I hope
Tomorrow’s a better day
