subh-dam aati hai ai hind tere aanchal se
hamd ki nat ki puja ki bhajan ki khushbu

dhadkanon ne yahan chhedi hai mohabbat ki ghazal
hai fazaon mein ukhuwwat ke saman ki khushbu

tere daman mein ajanta-o-hasin-taj-mahal
tere kheton mein hai dahqan ke jatan ki khushbu

tere jharnon se ubharte hain tarane dilkash
ruh sarshaar kare dasht-o-daman ki khushbu

'mir'-o-'ghaalib' hon ki 'iqbaal' ya 'chakbast'-o-'firaq'
teri mitti mein basi in ke sukhan ki khushbu

rang ki nasl ki tahzib ki hai qaus-e-quzah
hai kahan dahr mein ye gang-o-jaman ki khushbu

mujh ko ghurbat mein bhi ehsas-e-watan hota hai
jab bhi lati hai saba mere watan ki khushbu

teri mitti pe tasadduq hain dil-o-jaan sabhi
bhul sakte nahin hum tere manan ki khushbu

tere honton pe tabassum ki dhanak khulti rahe
sada aabaad rahe tere chaman ki khushbu
