Kya karegi tu ghar se nikalke, jaaegi tu kahaan,
Kya dekhegi tu Taj Mahal ko, main na hoon jo wahaan,
Kya nazar aur kya nazaare, kuchh nahin inmein baat,
Nagri-nagri kya dhoondegi, main nahi jo tere saath.
Kabhi aana tu meri gully
Tujhe palkon pe rakhoonga ji.
Baat dil ki karoon Hindustani jo hoon,
Jab jee chaahe to aaja na jee.
Kabhi aana tu meri gully-2
Kya karegi tu Kashmir jaake, swarg tera yahaan
Mere dil ke mohalle mein aake dil lagaake to jaa
Saari gullian tujhe hee pukaarein, aake to sun zaraa.
Na chinar hai, na pahadh hai, na samunder yahaan,
Phir bhi shahron ka shahar hai, main rahoon jo yahaan.
