shahr mera udaas ganga sa
koi bhi aae aur apne paap
kho ke jaata hai dhoke jaata hai
aag ka khel khelne vaale
ye nahin jante ki paani ka
aag se bair hai hamesha ka
aag kitni hi khaufnak sahi
us ki lapton ki umr thodi hai
aur ganga ke saaf paani ko
aaj bahna hai kal bhi bahna hai
jaane kis kis ka dard sahna hai
shahr mera udaas ganga sa
