sankaT meñ hai jaan tumhārī bastī meñ
qātil hai darbān tumhārī bastī meñ
ghuT ghuT kar jiinā paḌtā hai logoñ ko
marnā hai āsān tumhārī bastī meñ
chaubīsoñ ghanTe chaukanne rahte haiñ
dīvāroñ ke kaan tumhārī bastī meñ
maiḳhāne meñ bhiiḌ hamesha rahtī hai
deval haiñ sunsān tumhārī bastī meñ
paas paḌosī bhī ik-dūje se aksar
rahte haiñ anjān tumhārī bastī meñ
sachchā.ī kī pūchh parakh kam hotī hai
biktā hai īmān tumhārī bastī meñ
chintā meñ har shaḳhs dikhā.ī detā hai
ġhā.eb hai muskān tumhārī bastī meñ
laffāzoñ ko dekh adab kī mahfil meñ
shā'ir haiñ hairān tumhārī bastī meñ
Thokī jaatī hai taalī mithyā 'naurang'
hotā hai gungān tumhārī bastī meñ
sankaT mein hai jaan tumhaari basti mein
qatil hai darban tumhaari basti mein
ghuT ghuT kar jina paDta hai logon ko
marna hai aasan tumhaari basti mein
chaubison ghanTe chaukanne rahte hain
diwaron ke kan tumhaari basti mein
maiKHane mein bhiD hamesha rahti hai
dewal hain sunsan tumhaari basti mein
pas paDosi bhi ik-duje se aksar
rahte hain anjaan tumhaari basti mein
sachchai ki puchh parakh kam hoti hai
bikta hai iman tumhaari basti mein
chinta mein har shaKHs dikhai deta hai
ghaeb hai muskan tumhaari basti mein
laffazon ko dekh adab ki mahfil mein
sha'ir hain hairan tumhaari basti mein
Thoki jati hai tali mithya 'naurang'
hota hai gungan tumhaari basti mein
