Khudaa ham ko aisii Khudaa_ii na de
ki apane sivaa kuchh dikhaa_ii na de

Khataavaar samajhegii duniyaa tujhe
ab itanii ziyaadaa safaa_ii na de

[Khataavaar = guilty]

ha.Nso aaj itanaa ki is shor me.n
sadaa siskiyo.n kii sunaa_ii na de

Gulaamii ko barakat samajhane lage
asiiro.n ko aisii rihaa_ii na de

[barakat = blessing; asiiro.n = prisoners; rihaa_ii = freedom]

Khudaa aise ehasaas kaa naam hai
rahe saamane aur dikhaa_ii na de
