Joh hum-mein bawaraa samajte hai

Wrestling between an honest man versus the society.

Joh hum-mein bawaraa samajte hai,
Woh hum-mein asaraa-sa kya denghe?
Hum-ne mar mar ke jisko sichaa hai,
Woh fasal aaj woh jalaa denghe.

Meri har baat pe joh hasteh hai,
kyu mujhe bhik mein dua denghe?
Enko kudrat ka kahaa khaltaa hai,
Yeh mere aks ko mitaa denghe.

Jinka dil hai par phir bhi khali hai,
Woh hum-mein de bhi de toh kya denghe?
Mere aasu aur phir mere gham ko,
Koi tarkeeb se badhaa denghe.

"Koi mandir mein ab nahi rehtaa"
mere kehne pe bad dua denghe,
gehre taano se meri ezzath pe,
naastik ke chinha sa bana denghe.

Jis gali se mein phir gujar jauu,
woh tamasha koi bana denghe,
mere zillat se dabe khandho par,
bhoj aur koi phir chadhha denghe.

thouda behlaakar tohuda pushlakar,
mujko marne ke phir salaah denghe,
aur kabhi bhool ke yeh joh saas bharu,
mujko phir yaad yeh dilaa denghe.

mera ensaan sa banana jinhe gawara na ho,
woh mujhe aise ya waise jaroor hara denghe,
aur phir meri haar pe yu jshan banaenge yeh,
ke mere ensaan banne ki aas ko yeh bhulaa denghe.
