tum agar do na pairahan apna
charkh se maang luun kafan apna
aage karte the is tarah pamal
yaad to kijiye chalan apna
aaj ham jaan dene aae hain
kuchh dikhate ho bankpan apna
shana zulfon men vaan nahin uljha
saanp dikhla raha hai phan apna
yaad rakhiyo hamari pamali
bhuliyo mat kabhi chalan apna
ya kaho ham kuen men duub maren
ya dikhao kucha-e-zaqan apna
ham vo bulbul nahin jo baagh ko jaaen
kucha-e-yar hai chaman apna
ham ko dikhla ke tang karte hain
gah kamar apni gah dahan apna
jis ko kahte hain log shahr kada
ai ‘sakhi’ hai vahi vatan apna
