dil ne jine ki jab se thani hai
kitni pur-kaif zindagani hai

ye kahan waqt hum ko le aaya
khun sasta hai mahnga pani hai

dekh kar un ko muskurae jo hum
wo ye samjhe ki shadmani hai

kab wo mehnat se munh chhupate hain
jin ko taqdir aazmani hai

jaan se bhi ziyaada mujh ko aziz
dard-e-dil jo teri nishani hai

sari duniya ko hech samjhoge
jab talak josh hai jawani hai

dekho mat hath ki lakir 'sharar'
sirf mehnat mein kaamrani hai
