This song is an address to the Ganga. The lyrics say - "Ai Ganga Tumne Sab Kuch Dekha Apne Teere, Phir Bhi Tum Thamti Nahi, Dheere-Dheere Behti Ho" (O Ganga, you have seen everything on your banks, yet you never stop, you keep flowing slowly). Here, the Ganga is shown as a witness who has seen humanity's joys and sorrows for centuries. The song asks - "Itna Andhera Pehle Kab Tha, Itni Sisaki Sunkar Bhi Tera Dil Nahi Dahlta?" (Was there ever so much darkness before? Doesn't your heart ache even after hearing such sobs?). These lines reflect the difficulties, despair, and confusions of society. The song says that something in all of us feels dried up, and even the Ganga's flow seems somewhat false.

The subsequent lyrics carry a tone of despair - "Door-Door Tak Dil Ko Koi Dilasa Nahi, Suraj Dikha Nahi Ki Phir Kuhasa Chha Gaya" (Nowhere far and wide is there any solace for the heart; the sun no sooner appears than fog descends again). The song conveys that with every moment, the confusion only grows, and hope seems to be drowning like in a whirlpool. It ends with a prayer to the Ganga - "Hum Sabko Bhi Saath Le Chalo, Ai Ganga, Kaise Behti Ho Dheere-Dheere?" (Take us all with you, O Ganga, how do you flow so slowly?). This song is a blend of devotion and social message, connecting the glory of the Ganga with the pain of humankind.
