hire moti lal jawahar role bhar bhar thaali
apna kisa apna daman apni jholi khali

apna kasa para para apna gareban chaak
chaak gareban wale logo tum kaise gun wale ho

kanton se talwe zakhmi hain ruh thakan se chur
kuche kuche khushbu bikhri apne ghar se dur

apna aangan suna suna apna dil viran
phulon kaliyon ke rakhwalo tum kaise gun wale ho

tufanon se takkar le li jab thame patwar
pyar ke nate jis kashti ke lakhon khewan-haar

sahil sahil shahr basae sagar sagar dhum
manjhi apni nagri bhole tum kaise gun wale ho

aankhon kirnen mathe suraj aur kutiya andhiyari
kaise likh lut raja ho tum samjhen log bhikari

shisha sachcha ujla jab tak uncha us ka bhaw
apna mol na jaana tum ne kaise gun wale ho

jin kheton ka rang nikhaare jalti tapti dhup
sawan ki phuwaren bhi chahen in kheton ka rup

tum ko kya ghata dil walo
tum jo sachche ho gun wale ho
