yahi tashwish shab-o-roz hai bangale mein

lucknow phir kabhi dikhlae muqaddar mera

ulfat ne tirī ham ko to rakkhā na kahīñ

dariyā na jañgal samā na zamīñ

ulfat ne teri hum ko to rakkha na kahin ka

dariya ka na jangal ka sama ka na zamin ka

dar-o-diwar pe hasrat se nazar karte hain

KHush raho ahl-e-watan hum to safar karte hain

be-muravvat ho bevafā ho tum

apne matlab ke aashna ho tum
