Don't worry, don't worry, buddy!
We have seen hardships much worse than this.
Don't worry, don't worry!
Don't worry, don't worry, buddy!
We have seen hardships much worse than this.
Don't worry, don't worry, buddy!
We have seen hardships much worse than this.
Having lost my mother at a young age,
I have already cried out all my tears.
I was like a vehicle speeding down the wrong way on a one-way street,
Hardships of every kind have crashed right into me.
I ate food without salt until my taste...
...was completely dead!
I wore jeans without a zipper and my reputation...
...was totally ruined!
I wandered around penniless and my friendships...
...all fell apart!
You can survive through all of it, and I myself am...
...living proof of it!
Don't worry, don't worry, buddy!
We have seen hardships much worse than this.
Don't worry, don't worry, buddy!
Somehow, we have overcome it all!
Don't worry, don't worry!
Hey, two atomic bombs dropped on Japan back then,
Hasn't that city of ashes risen back on its feet today?
Don't worry, don't, don't, don't worry!
Streets are named after those who studied under streetlights!
What is a diamond after all? It was once just a piece of coal!
Don't worry, don't, don't, don't worry!
A girl becomes a friend just seeing a speeding bike,
And breaking up in a minute is the trend if she doesn't like you!
Don't worry, don't worry, buddy!
We have seen hardships much worse than this.
Don't worry, don't worry, buddy!
Somehow, we have overcome it all!
People cursed him as a worthless scamp,
He posted a reel on Instagram and hit eight million views!
Don't worry, don't, don't, don't worry!
People boast about owning a lakh-rupee watch,
Doesn't a one-rupee watch show the exact same time?
Don't worry, don't, don't, don't worry!
The days of struggling after tying the thali (sacred wedding knot) are gone,
Living together has now become completely normal!
Don't worry, don't worry, buddy!
We have seen hardships much worse than this.
Don't worry, don't worry, buddy!
Somehow, we have overcome it all!
