    roz mere jaise hazāroñ

    mashaqqat bharī aag ke yahī sochte haiñ

    ki ahdāf ye parinda kabhī haath aayā nahīñ

    dūsroñ se kahīñ tez dauḌe haiñ lekin kabhī referē ne

    hamāre liye jiit shādiyāna bajāyā nahīñ

    kis liye daftaroñ meñ hamārī zamīñ par gul-e-mehrbānī

    khile nahīñ

    ya.anī darbār meñ har koī tund-ḳhūī se dekhe hameñ

    ab to circus ke ye būzne bhī hameñ koī kartab sikhāne ko tayyār haiñ

    un ko ġhībat se murdār khāne aadat purānī sahī

    chāplūsī zamāne aadat sahī

    vo nahīñ jānte ki agar khet tar pe aa.eñ to be-mausmī ghaas ugne lage

    vo nahīñ jānte ki ḳhudā zamīñ dekh kar to badan se utarte haiñ mere

    ye peḌāñ, ye atharv ye hānvāñ te haaḌe

    unheñ to zabāñ se kisī dūsre ke rag-o-pai meñ bas apnā bish gholnā hai

    kisī dūsre sadāqat pe taalā lagā ke

    ḳhud apne liye jhuuT ek adnā jahāñ kholnā hai

    purānī kahāvat meñ kāran the chālāk lomḌī jañgal ke sheroñ barbādiyoñ ke

    magar daftarī dāstāñ ye alag hai ki

    mardum-shanāsī ke māhir hameñ apnī sargoshiyoñ meñ to bāġhī qabīloñ ke sag mānte haiñ

    magar vus.atoñ ke parinde hameñ apne taḳh.īl ke bāl-o-par mānte haiñ

    ki bārah mahīnoñ ye jañg to masḳhare jiit jā.eñge

    aur ham bhī na.ī aag piine ko jigarā nayā lā.eñge

    roz hi mere jaise hazaron

    mashaqqat bhari aag pi ke yahi sochte hain

    ki ahdaf ka ye parinda kabhi hath aaya nahin

    dusron se kahin tez dauDe hain lekin kabhi referee ne

    hamare liye jit ka shadiyana bajaya nahin

    kis liye daftaron mein hamari zamin par gul-e-mehrbani

    khile hi nahin

    yani darbar mein har koi tund-KHui se dekhe hamein

    ab to circus ke ye buzne bhi hamein koi kartab sikhane ko tayyar hain

    un ko ghibat se murdar khane ki aadat purani sahi

    chaplusi zamane ki aadat sahi

    wo nahin jaante ki agar khet tar pe aaen to be-mausmi ghas ugne lage

    wo nahin jaante ki KHuda ki zamin dekh kar to badan se utarte hain mere

    ye peDan, ye atharw ye hanwan te haDe

    unhen to zaban se kisi dusre ke rag-o-pai mein bas apna bish gholna hai

    kisi dusre ki sadaqat pe tala laga ke

    KHud apne liye jhuT ka ek adna jahan kholna hai

    purani kahawat mein karan the chaalak lomDi jangal ke sheron ki barbaadiyon ke

    magar daftari dastan ye alag hai ki

    mardum-shanasi ke mahir hamein apni sargoshiyon mein to baghi qabilon ke sag mante hain

    magar wusaton ke parinde hamein apne taKHil ke baal-o-par mante hain

    ki barah mahinon ki ye jang to masKHare jit hi jaenge

    aur hum bhi nai aag pine ko jigara naya laenge
