cheen-o-arab hamara

Cheen-o-arab hamara, hindostan hamara
rehne ko ghar nahi hai, sara jahan hamara
cheen-o-arab hamara

Kholi bhi chin gai hai, benchen bhi chin gain hain
sarakon pe ghomta hai, ab karvan hamara
jaiben hain apni khaali, kiyoun deta warna gaali
wo santari hamara, wo pasaban hamara
cheen-o-arab hamara

Jitni bhi buildingen theen, saithon ne baant li hain
foot path bambai k hain aashiyan hamara
sone ko ham kalandar, ate hain bori bandar
har ek kholi yahan hai razadan hamara
cheen-o-arab hamara

Taleem hai adhori, milti nahi majori
malom kia kisi ko, dard-e-nihan hamara
cheen-o-arab hamara

Patla hai haal apna, lekin lahu hai garah
faulad se bana hai, her nao jawan hamara
mil-jul ke is watan ko, aisa sajaen ge ham
hairat se munh takega, sara jahan hamara
cheen-o-arab hamara
