Sajan re jhoot mat bolo

Sajan re jhoot mat bolo
Khuda ke paas jaana hai
Na haathi hai na ghoda hai
Wahan paidal hi jaana hai
Sajan re jhoot mat bolo
Khuda ke paas jaana hai
Na haathi hai na ghoda hai
Wahaan paidal hi jaana hai
Sajan re jhoot mat bolo

Tumhare mehal chaubaare
Yehin reh jaayenge saare
Tumhaare mehal chaubaare
Yehin reh jaayenge saare
Akad kis baat ki pyaare
Akad kis baat ki pyaare
Yeh sar phir bhi jhukaana hai
Sajan re jhoot mat bolo
Khuda ke paas jaana hai

Bhala keejey bhala hoga
Bura keejey bura hoga
Bhala keejey bhala hoga
Bura keejey bura hoga
Bahi likh likh ke kya hoga
Bahi likh likh ke kya hoga
Yahin sab kuch chukaana hai
Sajan re jhoot mat bolo
Khuda ke paas jaana hai

Ladakpan khel mein khoya
Jawaani neend bhar soya
Ladakpan khel mein khoya
Jawaani neend bhar soya
Budhaapa dekh kar roya
Budhaapa dekh kar roya
Wohi kissa puraana hai
Sajan re jhoot mat bolo
Khuda ke paas jaana hai
Na haathi hai na ghoda hai
Wahaan paidal hi jaana hai
Sajan re jhoot mat bolo
Khuda ke paas jaana hai

Another philosophical song. Although it is a success probably because of the combined efforts of Raj Kapoor, Mukesh, Shankar Jaikishan, and Shailendra, what I like most is its lyrics. Without these words, it just wouldn’t be the same. ~ S
