Happy Independence Day!

Jab dukh ki nadya main hum nay
Jeevan ki naao daali thee
Tha kitna kas bal baanhoN main
Lahoo main kitni laali thee
Yoon lagta tha do haath lagay
Aur naao pooram paar lagi
Aisa na hooa, har dharay main
Kuch an-dekhi majhdaarain theen
Kuch maanjhi thay anjaan bohut
Kuch be-parkhi patwaaraiN theeN
Ab jo bhi chaaho chaan karo
Aur jitnay chaaho dosh dharo
Nadya tau wohi hai, naao wohi
Ab tum hi kaho kiya karna hai
Ab kaisay paar utarna hai
