haqir basti ke hum makinon mein rasm kaisi riwaj kaisa
haqīr bastī ke ham makīnoñ meñ rasm kaisī rivāj kaisā
jahāñ ho faaqe se jaañ laboñ par ġharīb beTī kā daaj kaisā
kahīñ pe DhūñDe se mil sake to zarūr dekho hameñ dikhāo
ġharīb mulkoñ kī kachchī bastī meñ chhāj kaisā anaaj kaisā
koī pukāre to log dekheñ zamīñ se niklo falak se utro
vagarna itnā batā do shāhū ye taḳht kaisā ye taaj kaisā
ḳhulūs-o-mehr-o-vafā nahīñ hai to rishte-nāte fuzūl saare
na kaam aa.e koī ta'alluq to dukh bharā ye samāj kaisā
ḳhudā kī bastī ḳhudā ke bande sabhī usī kī amānateñ haiñ
ḳhudā-e-vāhid ke pyāre bando ḳhudā ke bandoñ pe raaj kaisā
chalo umīdoñ kā haath thāme sabhī gharoñ se nikal ke dekheñ
ufuq se kirnoñ kā taaj pahne nikaltā sūraj hai aaj kaisā
haqir basti ke hum makinon mein rasm kaisi riwaj kaisa
jahan ho faqe se jaan labon par gharib beTi ka daj kaisa
kahin pe DhunDe se mil sake to zarur dekho hamein dikhao
gharib mulkon ki kachchi basti mein chhaj kaisa anaj kaisa
koi pukare to log dekhen zamin se niklo falak se utro
wagarna itna bata do shahu ye taKHt kaisa ye taj kaisa
KHulus-o-mehr-o-wafa nahin hai to rishte-nate fuzul sare
na kaam aae koi ta'alluq to dukh bhara ye samaj kaisa
KHuda ki basti KHuda ke bande sabhi usi ki amanaten hain
KHuda-e-wahid ke pyare bando KHuda ke bandon pe raj kaisa
chalo umidon ka hath thame sabhi gharon se nikal ke dekhen
ufuq se kirnon ka taj pahne nikalta suraj hai aaj kaisa
