    sunā rahā huuñ tumheñ dāstān gāñdhī

    zamāne-bhar se nirālī hai shaan gāñdhī

    rahe rahe na rahe is meñ jaan gāñdhī

    na ruk sakī na rukegī zabān gāñdhī

    yahī sabab hai jo vo dil se sab ko pyārā hai

    vatan apne chamaktā huā sitārā hai

    banā thā mast koī aur koī saudā.ī

    har ek samt thī ġhaflat jab ghaTā chhā.ī

    to us aql-e-rasā kaam vaqt par aa.ī

    marīz-e-mulk hai mamnūn-e-chāra-farmā.ī

    na.e ḳhayāl meñ ik ik dil asiir huā

    udhar amiir huā aur udhar faqīr huā

    jafā-o-jaur ne ḳhuub apnī barbādī

    ḳharāb-hāl na dil raat kyuuñ huuñ fariyādī

    banā diyā thā qafas burī tarah aadī

    magar hai shukr milā ham ko dars-e-āzādī

    zamāna kahtā hai gāñdhī mahātmā vo hai

    bashar nahīñ hai haqīqat meñ devtā vo hai

    jo dil meñ yaad hai to lab pe naam us hai

    jo hai to zikr faqat sub.h-o-shām us hai

    bhalā.ī sab ho jis se vo kaam us hai

    jahāñ bhī jaao vahīñ ehtirām us hai

    uThā.e sar koī kyā sar uThā nahīñ saktā

    muqāble ke liye aage aa nahīñ saktā

    kisī se us ko mohabbat kisī se ulfat hai

    kisī ko us hai us ko kisī hasrat hai

    vafā-o-lutf tarahhum ḳhaas aadat hai

    ġharaz karam hai mudārāt hai ināyat hai

    kisī ko dekh saktā nahīñ hai mushkil meñ

    ye baat kyuuñ hai ki rakhtā hai dard vo dil meñ

    vo rashk-e-sham-e-hidāyāt hai anjuman ke liye

    vo misl-e-rūh-e-ravāñ unsur-e-badan ke liye

    vo ek sāġhar-e-nau mahfil-e-kuhan ke liye

    vo ḳhaas maslah-e-kul shaiḳh-o-barahman ke liye

    lagan use hai ki sab mālik-e-vatan ho jaa.eñ

    qafas se chhūT ke zīnat-dah-e-chaman ho jaa.eñ

    jafā-shi.ār se hotā hai bar-sar-e-paikār

    na paas top na golā na qabze meñ talvār

    zamāna tāba-e-irshād hukm par tayyār

    vo paak shakl se paidā haiñ josh ke āsār

    kisī ḳhayāl se charḳhe ke bal pe laḌtā hai

    khaḌī hai fauj ye tanhā magar akaḌtā hai

    tarah tarah ke sitam dil par apne sahtā hai

    hazār koī kahe kuchh ḳhamosh rahtā hai

    kahāñ sharīk haiñ āñkhoñ se ḳhuun bahtā hai

    suno suno ki ye ik kahne vaalā kahtā hai

    jo aabrū tumheñ rakhnī ho josh meñ aao

    raho na be-ḳhud-o-be-hosh hosh meñ aao

    usī ko ghere amīr-o-ġharīb rahte haiñ

    nadīm-o-mūnish-o-yār-o-habīb rahte haiñ

    adab ke saath adab se adiib rahte haiñ

    nasīb-var haiñ vo baḌe ḳhush-nasīb rahte haiñ

    koī batā.e to yuuñ dekh-bhāl kis hai

    jo us se baat kare ye majāl kis hai

    rifāh-e-ām se raġhbat hai aur matlab hai

    anokhī baat nirālī ravish nayā Dhab hai

    yahī ḳhayāl thā pahle yahī ḳhayāl ab hai

    faqat hai diin yahī bas yahī to maz.hab hai

    agar bajā hai to 'bismil' arz bhī sun lo

    chaman hai sāmne do-chār phuul tum chun lo

    suna raha hun tumhein dastan gandhi ki

    zamane-bhar se nirali hai shan gandhi ki

    rahe rahe na rahe is mein jaan gandhi ki

    na ruk saki na rukegi zaban gandhi ki

    yahi sabab hai jo wo dil se sab ko pyara hai

    watan ka apne chamakta hua sitara hai

    bana tha mast koi aur koi saudai

    har ek samt thi ghaflat ki jab ghaTa chhai

    to us ki aql-e-rasa kaam waqt par aai

    mariz-e-mulk hai mamnun-e-chaara-farmai

    nae KHayal mein ek ek ka dil asir hua

    udhar amir hua aur udhar faqir hua

    jafa-o-jaur ne ki KHub apni barbaadi

    KHarab-haal na dil raat kyun hun fariyaadi

    bana diya tha qafas ka buri tarah aadi

    magar hai shukr mila hum ko dars-e-azadi

    zamana kahta hai gandhi mahatma wo hai

    bashar nahin hai haqiqat mein dewta wo hai

    jo dil mein yaad hai to lab pe nam us ka hai

    jo hai to zikr faqat subh-o-sham us ka hai

    bhalai sab ki ho jis se wo kaam us ka hai

    jahan bhi jao wahin ehtiram us ka hai

    uThae sar koi kya sar uTha nahin sakta

    muqable ke liye aage aa nahin sakta

    kisi se us ko mohabbat kisi se ulfat hai

    kisi ko us ki hai us ko kisi ki hasrat hai

    wafa-o-lutf tarahhum ki KHas aadat hai

    gharaz karam hai mudaraat hai inayat hai

    kisi ko dekh hi sakta nahin hai mushkil mein

    ye baat kyun hai ki rakhta hai dard wo dil mein

    wo rashk-e-sham-e-hidayat hai anjuman ke liye

    wo misl-e-ruh-e-rawan unsur-e-badan ke liye

    wo ek saghar-e-nau mahfil-e-kuhan ke liye

    wo KHas maslah-e-kul shaiKH-o-barahman ke liye

    lagan use hai ki sab malik-e-watan ho jaen

    qafas se chhuT ke zinat-dah-e-chaman ho jaen

    jafa-shiar se hota hai bar-sar-e-paikar

    na pas top na gola na qabze mein talwar

    zamana taba-e-irshad hukm par tayyar

    wo pak shakl se paida hain josh ke aasar

    kisi KHayal se charKHe ke bal pe laDta hai

    khaDi hai fauj ye tanha magar akaDta hai

    tarah tarah ke sitam dil par apne sahta hai

    hazar koi kahe kuchh KHamosh rahta hai

    kahan sharik hain aankhon se KHun bahta hai

    suno suno ki ye ek kahne wala kahta hai

    jo aabru tumhein rakhni ho josh mein aao

    raho na be-KHud-o-be-hosh hosh mein aao

    usi ko ghere amir-o-gharib rahte hain

    nadim-o-munish-o-yar-o-habib rahte hain

    adab ke sath adab se adib rahte hain

    nasib-war hain wo baDe KHush-nasib rahte hain

    koi batae to yun dekh-bhaal kis ki hai

    jo us se baat kare ye majal kis ki hai

    rifah-e-am se raghbat hai aur matlab hai

    anokhi baat nirali rawish naya Dhab hai

    yahi KHayal tha pahle yahi KHayal ab hai

    faqat hai din yahi bas yahi to mazhab hai

    agar baja hai to 'bismil' ki arz bhi sun lo

    chaman hai samne do-chaar phul tum chun lo
