khafila dashte bala se jo suye sham chala
laashe abbas e alamdar pe zainab ne kaha
abbas abbas
chin gayi sar se rida koi baakhi na raha
abbas tere jaane ke baad

taane deta hai mujhe dekh ke yun shimr e layeen
teri awaaz pe abbas tera aata nahi
bangayi farshe aza tere liye ab ye zameen
sham jaana hi pada ye sitam mujhpe hua
abbas tere jaane…

roke kulsoom teri yaad may karti hai buka
teri haibat se kabhi siye nahi ahle jafa
kaisi badli ye tere baad zamane ki hawa
khush huwe ahle sitam so nahi paaye jo hum
abbas tere jaane…

raah may aale payambar ka dilasa mai bani
sham ke log tamashayi tamasha mai bani
zakhm sadaat ne paaye to maseeha mai bani
mai hi salaar bani mai alamdar bani
abbas tere jaane…

haye darbar may aale nabi aa pahunchi
aur sakina ko kaneezi may bulaata hai shaki
kissay faryad karoo tu bhi bata mere aqi
aur kya hoga sitam kitne lachaar hai hum
abbas tere jaane…

naam lekar jo sitamgar ne bulaya mujhko
amma fizza ne pasay pusht chupaya mujhko
yun bhi pardes may aada ne sataya mujhko
aise aalam may bhala kisko mai deti sada
abbas tere jaane…

hind zindan may aayi to ye kohraam utha
meri barbadi ka jab hind ne ehwaal suna
apna sar peet ke wo karne lagi wavaila
dekh kaisa hai sitam qaid hai ahle haram
abbas tere jaane…

tauq o zanjeer se sajjad jo azaad huwe
qabr pe bali sakina ke gay rote huwe
rukh suwe karbobala karke yehi bain kiye
seh nahi payi sitam dukhtare shahe umam
abbas tere jaane…

sham se mazhar o farhan rehaai jo mili
aaye maqtal may salami ke liye sab qaidi
ghutniyo chalti hui bhai ke markhad pe gayi
thay ye zainab ke sukhan margayi kyun na bahan
abbas tere jaane…
