ye mujhe chain kyun nahin padta ek hi shaKHs tha jahaan men kya

kya khabar kaun tha vo aur meraa kya lagta tha jisse milkar mujhe har shaKHs bura lagta tha

ab main saare jahaan men hooñ badnaam ab bhi tum mujh...ko jaanti ho kya

sair kar duniya ki ghaafil zindagaani phir kahaan zindagi gar kuchh rahi to ye jawaani phir kahaan

sabhi ka KHoon hai shaamil yahaañ ki miTTi men kisi ke baap ka hindustan thodii hai

tum to kahte the ki main rota nahin hooñ kab se itnaa muskuraya ja raha hai

main bharose ko bachaane par tula hooñ vo bahaanon par utarta ja raha hai

achha paane ke chakkar men apna sachcha kho dete hain

jis din bhookh kachotegi tum tab jaanoge ik daane ka matlab kya kya ho saktaa hai

ye dil laga jo dekhne aañkhen dhadkane ye lagin poori pranali ko yuñ hi hamne bigadte dekha hai
