Ae malik tere bande hum
Aise ho hamaare karam
Neki par chalein aur badhee se talein
Taake hastein huve nikle dum
Ae malik tere bande hum
Bada kamzor hai aadmi
Abhi laakhon hain isme kamee
Par tu jo khada hai dayalu bada
Teri kirpa se dharti thamee
Diya tune hume jab janam
Tuhi jhelega hum sab ke gham
Neki par chalein aur badhee se talein
Taake hastein huve nikle dum
Ae malik tere bande hum
Ae malik tere bande hum
Aise ho hamaare karam
Neki par chalein aur badhee se talein
Taake hastein huve nikle dum
Ae malik tere bande hum
Ye andhera ghana cha raha
Tera insaan ghabra raha
Ho raha bekhabar, kuch na aata nazar
Sukh ka sooraj chupa ja raha
Hai teri roshni mein jo dum
Tu amaavas ko kar de poonam
Neki par chalein aur badhee se talein
Taake hastein huve nikle dum
Ae maalik tere bande hum
(Male voice speaking: Aaj shaayad humari aakhri kasauti hai. Agar is par na utre to mera prayog, ye tajurba hamesha ke liye nakaamiyab sabit hoga!)
Jab zulmon ka ho saamna
Tab tuhi hume thaamna
Wo buraai karein hum bhalaai dharein
Nahi badle ki ho kaamna
Badh uthe pyaar ka har kadam
Aur mite bair ka ye bharam
Neki par chalein aur badhee se talein
Taake hastein huve nikle dum
Ae malik tere bande hum

I love this song because I love the story of the film Do aankhein barah haath, considered a Hindi classic. It is the story of a jailor, Adinath, who wishes to reform twelve prisoners, not within the jail but in the midst of society. The lyrics is apt as they allude to the struggles faced by mankind. Although there are more melodious songs, probably better rendered than this (and a female version by the great Lata Mangeshkar), this version has always been a favourite of mine. ~ S
