chhanak chhanak si pael pael nache shoKH nashili miTTi

chhanak chhanak sī paa.el paa.el nāche shoḳh nashīlī miTTī

biktī jaa.e nagrī nagrī badan badan chamkīlī miTTī

karvaT karvaT dard chhupā kar palkoñ par sapne bikhrā kar

ashkoñ se ham gūñdh rahe haiñ kaalī niilī piilī miTTī

chhoḌ ke mat tum jaanā hargiz bastī ke albele logo

degī roz sadā.eñ tum ko bastī kī rangīlī miTTī

palkoñ kā sañgīt sunā kar chāhat kī ḳhushbū lahrā kar

man āñgan meñ dhuup bichhā.e muTThī bhar chamkīlī miTTī

dhaḌkan dhaḌkan meñ bas jaa.e qurbat qurbat dil bahlā.e

dilbar dilbar raas rachā.e pag pag sughaḌ sajīlī miTTī

shahr-o-qarya ghuum ga.ī hai man mastī meñ jhuum rahī hai

mahloñ kī mehrāb banī hai gaañv kī sharmīlī miTTī

umaD rahā hai be-kal be-kal prem kā dariyā tūfāñ tūfāñ

humak rahī hai aaj ghaḌe kī kachchī kachchī piilī miTTī

kumhāran ne chaak chalāyā be-kal sā jaadū dikhlāyā

ruup ruup meñ Dhaltī jaa.e chanchal chhail-chhabelī miTTī

haule-haule chal ai raahī sañbhal sañbhal kar narm-ravī se

maiñ bhī thī sartāj kisī kī bol rahī hai giilī miTTī

chhanak chhanak si pael pael nache shoKH nashili miTTi

bikti jae nagri nagri badan badan chamkili miTTi

karwaT karwaT dard chhupa kar palkon par sapne bikhra kar

ashkon se hum gundh rahe hain kali nili pili miTTi

chhoD ke mat tum jaana hargiz basti ke albele logo

degi roz sadaen tum ko basti ki rangili miTTi

palkon ka sangit suna kar chahat ki KHushbu lahra kar

man aangan mein dhup bichhae muTThi bhar chamkili miTTi

dhaDkan dhaDkan mein bas jae qurbat qurbat dil bahlae

dilbar dilbar ras rachae pag pag sughaD sajili miTTi

shahr-o-qarya ghum gai hai man masti mein jhum rahi hai

mahlon ki mehrab bani hai ganw ki sharmili miTTi

umaD raha hai be-kal be-kal prem ka dariya tufan tufan

humak rahi hai aaj ghaDe ki kachchi kachchi pili miTTi

kumhaaran ne chaak chalaya be-kal sa jadu dikhlaya

rup rup mein Dhalti jae chanchal chhail-chhabeli miTTi

haule-haule chal ai rahi sanbhal sanbhal kar narm-rawi se

main bhi thi sartaj kisi ki bol rahi hai gili miTTi
