✓    Baghdad de hakim eid kiti

Poore shehr ich jashan manaake

Koi qaidi jhangaya qaid khaane

Takleefaa tou tang aake

Jaindi marzi houwe chaa dafan kare

Mazloom ku kafan pawa ke

Nay te pul baghdad te rakwesan

Mazdoor janaza cha ke

——-

    ✓    Mai o mazloom di majlis parrhda

Jaindi laash te waaris aayi nay

Jerra turan de baad vi qaidi haa

Kain aa zanjeer lahayi nay

Jende watan te unvi puttar haawan

Rab jaane o kyu aaye nay

Armaan hai musa kazim de

Kain hath te pair banaayi nay??

    ✓    Panjvi rajab di fajar wele

Thiya vich baghdad elaan e

Koi qaidi jhanrrgaya qaid khaane

Jaindi qaid hy chouda saal e

Koi rishtadaar ya waaqif houwe

Jerra ounda mayat sanbhaale

Nayi te baad kafan mazdoora de

Kardesaa mayat hawaale

    ✓    Saadaat te zulm abbaasiya de

Te taareekh da moun sharmagaye

Sun waaqiyah musa kazim da

Daarain de dil ghabraagaye

Mera chouda saal da qaidi mola

Tere dard jigar ku khaagaye

Jende watan te unvi puttar haawi

Mazdoor janaaza chaagaye

    ✓    Mai o masmoom da waaqiya parrhda

Je tang zindaan handdaya

Je ku chouda saal di qaid de vich

Aasmaan nazar nay aya

Panjvi rajab ku wakht subah

Haroon elaan karaaya

Koi qaidi jhangaya e qaid khaane

Jendi qaid hy chouda saal e

    ✓    Nay moya naal muqaable honde

E duniya da dastoor e

Jenda ik vi houwe  hy o jag duniya te

Nay mayat chainde mazdoor e

Dhi jitni vi majboor? Houwe

Aa waindi e koul zaroor e

Mai samajhgayaa bewaaris hai

Ya watan kono bhouw door e

[…]

    ◦    Kal duniya tou ik masallay da

Te parwaaz jo ab aj mangdaa e

Atth pair musalsal koi qaidi

Zindaan ich nay kharrhsakda e

Vich qaid khaane de qaidi da

Te ik pal vich oukha langda e

Jainde chouda saal raqu vich guzra

Daso qaidi kerre rang da e

    ◦    Tareekh gawaah hai syedaan de

Aaye jag tou ajab naseeb e

Gaya kar khatoon de puttaraa ku

Baghdad da shehr ghareeb e

Hik mayat utthi zindaan vicho

Jende dafan da haal ajeeb e

Utho qabaristaan kareeb aaya

Ya pul baghdad qareeb e

    ◦    Jeri hath rak turdi e

Hy o paase te maloom theenda e

Syed aakhe

Je ku amaa pattaya? Bandi rayi e

O hasnain di maa e

Jeri shaam ich patthar jhalendi raye e

Oo de naal hussain bharra e

Aj baad madad di naal akbar di

Payi aandi e dukhiya e
