ek aisa zamana guzra hai jab apna sahaara koi na tha
manjhdar mein apni kashti thi mahfuz kinara koi na tha

sad shukr ke wo din bit gae jab kucha-gardi karte the
ab apne club ke kaamon mein hum waqt guzara karte hain

tafrih ke sare kaamon mein jab rode sab atkate the
jab khel ka nam aa jata tha bal tewri par pad jate the

ab apne sare buzurgon ko shishe mein utara karte hain
sad shukr ke wo din bit gae jab kucha-gardi karte the

ab apne club ke kaamon mein hum waqt guzara karte hain
ye library apni hai ye bank ka kaam hamara hai

ye reading room hamara hai ye park hamara apna hai
hum apne bigadte kaamon ko khud aap sanwara karte hain

sad shukr ke wo din bit gae jab kucha-gardi karte the
ab apne club ke kaamon mein hum waqt guzara karte hain

school mein din bhar padh likh kar jab sham ko hum ghar aate hain
phir apne club mein jate hain aur apna ji bahlate hain

zehnon ko jo shal kar deta hai wo bojh utara karte hain
sad shukr ke wo din bit gae jab kucha-gardi karte the

ab apne club ke kaamon mein hum waqt guzara karte hain
