Zanjiiro.n se bandhaa hoo.n
Bardaasht kar raha hoo.n
Ab isse niche kya giru.n
Apne aap ka qarz-khvaah hoo.n
Zanjiiro.n se bandhaa hoo.n
Zanjiiro.n se bandhaa hoo.n
 

Ye dhundhle basaarate.n
Ubhar aaii hai.n ranjishe.n
Behti surkh dhaaraae.n
Nigle mujhe ye zanjiire.n
Ye shams zard ho gaya
Mera guruur dhal gaya
Mai.n khud se puuchta hoo.n
Intihaa se kyuu.n daraa hoo.n
Intihaa se kyuu.n daraa hoo.n
Main zanjiiro.n se bandha hoo.n
Main zanjiiro.n se bandhaa hoo.n

 
Bikhre hue ruuh se
Umiid kii ik kiran jagi
Jo ho gaya thaa paash-paash
Jud kar vo taaqat banii
Qafas ke andhero.n se
Aaj khud mukhtaar hoo.n
Main zanjiiro.n se aazaad hoo.n
Main zanjiiro.n se aazaad hoo.n
