kya dhoond rahi hai jangal may sakina

abbas ke baazu ya baba ka seena

1. Manga tha shahe dee'n ne jise shab ki duao'n mein

hai aaj wo shehzadi maqtal ki fizao'n mein

naazo ki pali ka mushkil hua jeena

kya dhoond rahi....

2. Jalte hue daman ko rote hue takti hai

shabbir ki masooma is tarha sisakti hai

zakhmi hua haye shehzadi ka seena

kya dhoond rahi....

3. Wo dard hai kaano mein behta hai lahu taza

koi nahi kar sakta in zakhmo ka andaza

wo durro ka khana wo ashko ka peena

kya dhoond rahi....

4. Zalim se koi kehde ye naazo ki paali hai

aye waaye sitam ghum mein chadar ki sawali hai

ab kaise milegi ammu se hazeena

kya dhoond rahi....

5. Saqqa e sakina ko neend aa gayi darya par

zakhmo ka kafan pehne soye hai abhi sarwar

payegi na ye bachhi ab baba ka seena

kya dhoond rahi....

6. Zadd par hai mazalim ke ye phool si mazlooma

maqtal se kaha'n jaye shabbir ki masooma

toofa'n mein ghira hai sarwar ka safeena

kya dhoond rahi....

7. Ammu se koi kehde zinda'n mein tadapti hai

darwaza e zinda'n par is aas mein baithi hai

mai bhi kabhi dekhungi phir shehre madina

kya dhoond rahi....

8. Mar jaungi aye baba aaye na agar lene

ye ho hi nahi sakta aaye na khabar lene

baba se koi kehde roti hai hazeena

kya dhoond rahi....

9. Wo waqt e judayi ho halaat ki majboori

sarwar se sakina ki ab tak nahi gayi doori

maqtal mein anguthi hai zinda'n mein nageena

kya dhoond rahi....

10. Qismat pe zafar jiske likhi na thi azadi

taa maut ata haye bhooli nahi shehzadi

wo zakhmo mein marna, wo zakhmo mein jeena

kya dhoond rahi hai jangal may sakina
