mere school meri yaadon ke paikar sun le
main tere waste rota hun barabar sun le
tere ustadon ne mehnat se padhaya hai mujhe
teri benchon ne hi insan banaya hai mujhe
na-tarashida sa hira tha tarasha tu ne
zehn-e-tarik ko bakhsha hai ujala tu ne
ilm ki jhil ka tairak banaya hai mujhe
khauf ko chhin ke bebak banaya hai mujhe
tujh se shafqat bhi mili tujh se mohabbat bhi mili
daulat-e-ilm mili mujh ko sharafat bhi mili
shafqaten aisi mili hain mujhe ustadon ki
parwarish karta ho jaise koi shahzadon ki
teri chahat mein main is darja bhi kho jata tha
teri benchon pe hi kuchh der ko so jata tha
