[B.G.M.]

eik TuuTii hu'ii zanjeer ki fariyaad haiN ham
or duniyaa yeh samajhtii hai kih aazaad haiN ham

kyuuN hameN log samajhte haiN yahaaN pardesii
eik muddat se Isii shahr meN aabaad haiN ham

kaahe kaa tark-e-watan, kaahe ki hijrat, baabaa!
isii dhartii ki, isii desh ki aulaad haiN ham

ham bhii taameer-e-watan meN haiN baraabar ke shareek
dar-o-diivaar agar tum ho to buniyaad haiN ham

ham ko is daur-e-taraqqii ne diyaa kyaa "Me'raj"
kal bhii barbaad thay aur aaj bhii barbaad haiN ham


~"me'raj" Faizabadi
