| Here's to losers |
Everywhere we exist
Yet you’ve written
nothing about us
How unfair it is, isn’t it
By now, you should
have written our omnibus
Hum to losers hai bhaiya
N manzil n chandi n
rupaiya
Everywhere we fail and
we lose
In everything we do or
we choose
Minding the Ps and Qs
we could never cope
Yet we are undaunted,
we never stop to hope
Hum to losers hai bhaiya
N manzil n chandi n
rupaiya
Some lose out on their age
yet they don’t sulk and sigh
Some lose their loves,
their possession and work
Yet the spirit is
always up and high
From their duties they
never run and shirk
Hum to losers hai bhaiya
N manzil n chandi n
rupaiya
The world writes for
winning and winners
No one pens for the
won
Losing in the game we
are the givers
Of their wealth, worth
and position
Hum to losers hai bhaiya
N manzil n chandi n
rupaiya
Write about us O
writer
Give us some space in
your book
We are also the
winners
How could you us overlook
Hum to losers hai bhaiya
N
manzil n chandi n rupaiya
We lose
in every moment of the day
Yet we
are full of hope, with endless fun
Include us
in the books if you may
We are
replete with stories unsung
Hum to losers hai bhaiya
N manzil n chandi n rupaiya
Note: The refrain in the poem has a pedestrian style and is a mix of Hindi (Indian language) and English. It means we are losers o brothers, no goals, no silver/coins, no money.
