Hey one day heroo needhaan machi

Hey, you are the hero of the day, buddy!
The whole town is lifting you up high,
Celebrating and beating the drums!
Right now, you are the ruling power!
Saluting you with respect, the whole town
Looks up to you like a god, man!
Even if you drive down a one-way street,
There's no one to question you!
Riding high atop a chariot,
You arrive in style like a shining star!
Even if the Chief Minister or Prime Minister arrives,
You don't even need to stand up!
Seeing you won't be easy anymore like before,
Truly, our life will slip away before we even get to see you!
Hoo oo hoo
Go on, go on, go on!
Go on, my friend!
With pride and swagger like a king,
Go on, my friend!
Go on, go on, go on!
Go on, my friend!
With pride and swagger like a king,
Go on, my friend!
Even with a ladder, nobody can reach your height;
There is no one on your level!
So many people bow in respect
Right beneath your feet!
Wealth, cash, and all the money—
Is just like dust before you!
In this whole town, to buy you,
Nobody has enough money!
From now on, looking at you,
There's no one left to give you orders!
Hoo oo hoo
Go on, go on, go on!
Go on, my friend!
With pride and swagger like a king,
Go on, my friend!
From now on, in this land of yours,
You are the beloved child!
There are no sad songs here,
Heaven itself is in your pocket!
Let airplanes and rockets
Run beneath your feet!
No Sundays and no end days,
Dance and celebrate however you like!
Your own destiny,
Go ahead and write it grandly yourself, man!
Hoo oo hoo
Go on, go on, go on!
Go on, my friend, oh!
With pride and swagger like a king,
Go on, my friend!
Go on, go on, go on!
Go on, my friend!
Male: Go on, my friend!
Chorus: With pride and swagger like a king,
Go on, my friend!
Male: Walk with pride and swagger, my friend!
