    aligarh hai yahāñ ai dost kyā paayā nahīñ jaatā

    yahāñ vo kaun show hai jo dikhlāyā nahīñ jaatā

    ye ilm-o-fan gahvāra hai tahzībī idāra hai

    nazar meñ ye hamārī to siyāsat akhāḌā hai

    har ik sho.abe meñ pāoge yahāñ tum pārTī-bāzī

    yahāñ rahtī hai aapas meñ hamesha tarkī-o-tāzī

    ḳhudā ke fazl se ahl-e-hunar haiñ ahl-e-fan sab haiñ

    magar DeḌh iiñT masjid banāne meñ magan sab haiñ

    yahāñ āsār baaqī haiñ abhī jagīr-dārī ke

    muhāfiz paa.e jaate haiñ abhī sarmāya-dārī ke

    ġhazab ke haiñ jo yahāñ ke inqilābī haiñ

    yahāñ jo ishtirākī haiñ samajh lo bas kitābī haiñ

    yahāñ maz.hab ke Thekedār bhī milte haiñ bahtere

    yahāñ laTh-bāz-o-chāqū-mār bhī milte haiñ bahtere

    aligarh ke kisī function meñ gar tashrīf le jaa.eñ

    jo fiqre-bāziyāñ hoñgī na un se aap ghabrā.eñ

    ḳhudā-na-ḳhvāsta ġhanDe lafañge aur na lachche haiñ

    ye tālib-ilm collage ke sharīfoñ ke ye bachche haiñ

    faqat qaumī rivāyat ye apnī paas rakhte haiñ

    koī parvā na kiije ye faqat bakvās rakhte haiñ

    har ik mahfil meñ hotī hai yahāñ hañgāma-ārā.ī

    ki achchhe achchhe ilm-o-fan bante haiñ saudā.ī

    yahāñ ahl-e-aligarh jo bhī sub.h-o-shām karte haiñ

    baḌe laa.eq haiñ sir-sayyad ūñchā naam karte haiñ

    yahāñ ki begameñ bhī ik nirālī shaan rakhtī haiñ

    numūd-e-zāhiri har qadam par dhyān rakhtī haiñ

    paḌhī-likkhī hoñ an-paḌh yahāñ donoñ barābar haiñ

    jo mauzū-e-suḳhan suniye to kapḌe aur zevar haiñ

    alāva is ke to naukaroñ par nauha-ḳhvānī hai

    nahīñ to ġhībateñ haiñ shaiḳhiyāñ haiñ lan-tarānī hai

    samājī mashġhaloñ meñ to haiñ shādī taqrībeñ

    nahīñ to mahfil-e-mīlād vo majlis niyāz aur nazreñ

    kahīñ hai ijtimā tablīġhiyoñ ek koThī meñ

    to hai shī.oñ majlis aur raqā.im dūsre ghar meñ

    zarā jo modern Thahrīñ vo haiñ filmoñ shaidā.ī

    na.ī tasvīr jo aa.e to goyā in ban aa.e

    aligarh hai yahan ai dost kya paya nahin jata

    yahan wo kaun sa show hai jo dikhlaya nahin jata

    ye ilm-o-fan ka gahwara hai tahzibi idara hai

    nazar mein ye hamari to siyasat ka akhaDa hai

    har ek shoabe mein paoge yahan tum parTi-bazi

    yahan rahti hai aapas mein hamesha tarki-o-tazi

    KHuda ke fazl se ahl-e-hunar hain ahl-e-fan sab hain

    magar DeDh inT ki masjid banane mein magan sab hain

    yahan aasar baqi hain abhi jagir-dari ke

    muhafiz pae jate hain abhi sarmaya-dari ke

    ghazab ke hain jo yahan ke inqilabi hain

    yahan jo ishtiraki hain samajh lo bas kitabi hain

    yahan mazhab ke Thekedar bhi milte hain bahtere

    yahan laTh-baz-o-chaqu-mar bhi milte hain bahtere

    aligarh ke kisi function mein gar tashrif le jaen

    jo fiqre-baziyan hongi na un se aap ghabraen

    KHuda-na-KHwasta ghanDe lafange aur na lachche hain

    ye talib-ilm collage ke sharifon ke ye bachche hain

    faqat qaumi riwayat ka ye apni pas rakhte hain

    koi parwa na kije ye faqat bakwas rakhte hain

    har ek mahfil mein hoti hai yahan hangama-arai

    ki achchhe achchhe ilm-o-fan bante hain saudai

    yahan ahl-e-aligarh jo bhi subh-o-sham karte hain

    baDe laeq hain sir-sayyad ka uncha nam karte hain

    yahan ki begamen bhi ek nirali shan rakhti hain

    numud-e-zahiri ka har qadam par dhyan rakhti hain

    paDhi-likkhi hon ya an-paDh yahan donon barabar hain

    jo mauzu-e-suKHan suniye to kapDe aur zewar hain

    alawa is ke ya to naukaron par nauha-KHwani hai

    nahin to ghibaten hain shaiKHiyan hain lan-tarani hai

    samaji mashghalon mein ya to hain shadi ki taqriben

    nahin to mahfil-e-milad wo majlis niyaz aur nazren

    kahin hai ijtima tablighiyon ka ek koThi mein

    to hai shion ki majlis aur raqaim dusre ghar mein

    zara jo modern Thahrin wo hain filmon ki shaidai

    nai taswir jo aae to goya in ki ban aae
