Ameer e shehr ghareebon ko loot leta hy,
kabhi ba heela e mazhab kabhi banam e watan
Aur phir apny shikayat say bhi kya hota hy,
wohy hota hy jo manzoor e khuda hota hy
Aye khuda aj usay sab ka muqadar kar day,
wo mohabat k jo insan ko payember kar day
Janat kay ajara dar ban kar shab o roz,
Allah ka nam bechtay hain ye log
Kabhi to ham ko bhi bakhshay wo abr ka tukra,
jo asman ko neely ridayen deta hy
Kadi hy jang k ab kay muqablay p faraz,
ameer e shehr bhi hy aur khateeb bhi hy
Muj sa gunahgar sar e dar keh gya,
waez nay jo sukhan sar e manbar nahi kaha
