jab riha sham ke zindan se hue ahle haram

kya khushi hoti dubala hua sadaat ka gham

jisko armane rihaai tha hui wo bedam

ek nanhi si lehad par tha musalsal matam

sunke faryad-o-fughan saans ruki jaati thi

qabr se bali sakina ki sada aati thi

watan jaane walon mujhe bhi watan le chalo

mujhe bhi watan le chalo

mai kaise rahungi yahan par

yahan hai bhala kaun mera

mujhe bhi watan le chalo....

reha hoke ghar jaane walon,  mujhe bhi kahin par bitha lo

shaheedo ke sar hai jahan par, mujhe bhi wahin par sulado

mai baba ke sar se lipat kar, safar kaat-lungi ye saara

mujhe bhi watan le chalo....

na yun chor kar jao amma, mujhe shamiyon ke sahare

yateemi ki maari hui ko, sataya bahot zaalimo ne

bahot khauf aata hai mujhko, tumhe waasta sayyeda ka

mujhe bhi watan le chalo....

suna hai ke wapas milay hai, tumhein shimr se mere gowhar

bhala kya karoge tum unka, agar rehgayi mai yahan par

inhi bhi amaanat samajh kar, ya dafna do zindan may ya

mujhe bhi watan le chalo....

jo pahunchay madina to amma, phir raqte musibat na aaye

sina ur akbar ki baatein, sunane ki naubat na aaye

meri laash ko dekh kar hi, samajh legi har baat sugra

mujhe bhi watan le chalo....

yehi soch kar zayre turbat, tadapta hai dukhiya ka laasha

mujhe shimr ke shehr may ab, hamesha hi rehna padega

dhadakta nahi phir bhi amma, ye dil kaamp jaata hai mera

mujhe bhi watan le chalo....

sare shahe deen kuch to bolo, sifarish karo kuch hamari

khaza aagayi hai to phir kya, mai beti hoo baba tumhari

na inkaar kar payengi wo, phupi se zara kehdo baba

mujhe bhi watan le chalo....

ye haalat thi har ek qadam par, madine ke raste may akbar

giri thi jahan par sakina, tamache lage thay jahan par

wahan khaak se qaidiyo ko, sadayein ye aati thi har ja

mujhe bhi watan le chalo...
