main ek kiran hun ujala hai tamkanat meri
maiñ ik kiran huuñ ujālā hai tamkanat merī
tamām rañgoñ se bhī hai munāsibat merī
maiñ ik ḳhalā huuñ na buniyād hai na chhat merī
magar haiñ donoñ jahāñ phir bhī milkiyat merī
guzar rahā huuñ nasheb-o-farāz se lekin
salā-e-ām hai phir bhī salāhiyat merī
kabhī mahaktā thā jo lucknow hinā kī tarah
isī dayār meñ likkhī hai shahriyat merī
kabhī bhī jal nahīñ saktī haiñ uñgliyāñ 'mutrib'
har ik charāġh kī lau par hai saltanat merī
main ek kiran hun ujala hai tamkanat meri
tamam rangon se bhi hai munasibat meri
main ek KHala hun na buniyaad hai na chhat meri
magar hain donon jahan phir bhi milkiyat meri
guzar raha hun nasheb-o-faraaz se lekin
sala-e-am hai phir bhi salahiyat meri
kabhi mahakta tha jo lucknow hina ki tarah
isi dayar mein likkhi hai shahriyat meri
kabhi bhi jal nahin sakti hain ungliyan 'mutrib'
har ek charagh ki lau par hai saltanat meri
