Umme laila sambhal zainab ko
Gareeb zehra par kya waqt hai gareebi ka...
garebaan chaak hai baalon me khaake karbobala
talaash karte hai rasta nazar nhi aata
yeh haal dekhke haste hai sheh par ahle jafa
behan ke kaandhon par kul kainaat laate hai
kadam kadam pa'r yeh aawaaz dete jaate hai
umme laila sambhal zainab ko x2
laa raha hu main lasha-e-akbar
umme laila sambhal zainab ko x2
bole honge hussain yeh rokar
umme laila sambhal zainab ko
laa raha hu main lasha-e-akbar
umme laila sambhal zainab ko
1) naujawan laash hai zaeefi hai
meri nazron se dekh manzar ko
kaise humsheer ko sambhalunga
main sambhale hue hu akbar ko
tera ehsaan hoga yeh mujhpar
2) uske seene se leke naame ali
maine barchi abhi nikaali hai
imtehaan de chuki meri gurbat
ab teri bebasi ki baari hai
tu bhi is waqt yaa ali kehkar
3) do nageene the iski godi me
dono akbar pe kar diye sadka
sabr aisa k apne beton par
maine rota ise nhi dekha
hai magar ab yeh lasha-e-akbar
4) rok rakha hai apne ashkon ko
sabse chup chup ke aaahein bharti hai
main samjhta hu maadare akbar
teri mamta pe jo guzarti hai
rakhke apne kaleje pe patthar
5) aise lashe jawaan uthaaye hun
aidiyaan khat banati aati hai
inn nishaano ko peeche-peeche mere
amma zahra mitate aati hai
uski nazrein na dekhe yeh manzar
6) aye 'taqallum' woh shaam-o-kufa ka
taye hua hoga is tarah se safar
Amma zainab sambhalna maa ko
kehte honge sina se yeh akbar
aur hoga hussain ke lab par...
