Kaha woh tha charagha'n har ek ghar ke liye,

Kaha woh tha charagha'n har ek ghar ke liye, kaha charaGh mayasar nahi shahar ke liye, yaha darakhto'n ke saye mai'n dhoop lagti hai, chalo yaha se chale aur umer bhar ke liye, na ho qamiz to ghutno'n se pet Dhak lenge, ye log kitne munsib hai'n is safar ke liye, Khuda nahi na sahi adami ka Khwab sahi, koi hasin nazara to hai nazar ke liye, wo mutmain hai'n ki patthar pighal nahi sakta, mai beqarar hoo'n awaz mai'an asar ke liye, jiye to apne baghiche mai'n gulmohar ke liye, mare to Ghair ki galiyo'n mai'n gul_mohar ke liye.
