lapata

ūñchī ūñchī imāratoñ meñ mere hisse kā āsmān lāpata

masrūf se is shahr meñ jism to haiñ insān lāpata

sunte the kabhī milā karte the jahāñ dil ke badle dil

tere is shahr meñ ab ishq kī hai vo dukān lāpata

is shahr meñ but-kade bhī haiñ aur masjideñ bhī tamām

insān kī fitrat dekh kar hue haiñ bhagvān lāpata

vaah rī jamhūriyat ham jinheñ sauñpte haiñ mulk apnā

unmeñ aql hai hoshiyārī hai tāqat hai bas īmān lāpata

na jaane kaun sī bijlī girī ki uḌnā bhuul gayā

mere dil ke armānoñ ke par to haiñ par uḌaan lāpata

unchi unchi imaraton mein mere hisse ka aasman lapata

masruf se is shahr mein jism to hain insan lapata

sunte the kabhi mila karte the jahan dil ke badle dil

tere is shahr mein ab ishq ki hai wo dukan lapata

is shahr mein but-kade bhi hain aur masjiden bhi tamam

insan ki fitrat dekh kar hue hain bhagwan lapata

wah ri jamhuriyat hum jinhen saunpte hain mulk apna

unmen aql hai hoshiyari hai taqat hai bas iman lapata

na jaane kaun si bijli giri ki uDna bhul gaya

mere dil ke armanon ke par to hain par uDan lapata
