Ik ik karke yaad paye aavan sajna de sabh laare
Raat nu sooraj dekhan Akbar din nu dekhan taare
Gum sum kharrhiyan meriyan sadhran tera rasta dekhan
Jugnuwan wangon dain bhuleke vele de lashkaare
Chaar chufere jagdeyan khuwaban ne pehra laya
Rang barange be-tarteebe jazbe lain hulaare
Yaad teri jad aave dil chon inj avazan aavan
Raat de pichle pehre jyon koi khuj vich pathar maare
Lehran dendiyan tez havavan bitt bitt paiyyan takkan
Ukhrriyan ukhrriyan sahvan utte lokan mehel usaare
Uche uche kotheyan utte chotte chottte bande
Inj paye jaapan jiven zamane sheeshe vich utaare
Jadon achanak raatan vele chand chamakda vekhan
Akbar mere andron koi menu wazaan maare
