*Bhoolay na bhula paayenge apne dais ki galleyaan
Apne dais ka charcha
Apne shehar ki raunaq
Us wattan ki mitti
Dharaktoon ke thanday saaye
Aur phoolon ki mehak
Bhoolay na bhula paayenge apne dais ki galleyaan
Woh shaamain thee suhaani
Woh bahaarain bhi alag theen
Bachpan ke suhaanay khail
Parastaan ki kahaani
Maivoo ki mehak
Aur khanoo ki woh khushboo
Bhoolay na bhula paayenge apne dais ki galleyaan
Woh thandi chaandni raatain
Muhallay ki chat-pati baatain
Woh shaadi ka charcha
Aur eid ki shopping
Bhoolay na bhula paayenge apne dais ki galleyaan
Barsaat ke dinoo mein pakooray banaana
Basant ke dinoo mein load-shedding ka zamaana
Cricket ke dinoo mein khoob shor machaana
Zara zara si baat ka afsaana banaana
Phupi ke ghar mein khoob hangama machaana
Chup chupa ke sab se paan khaana
Aur shaam ko bazaar se samosay mangwaana
Bhoolay na bhula paayenge apne dais ki galleyaan
Us dais ke galleyoon se nata torr aye hain
Us ghar ke aangan mein bachpan chorr aaye hain
Kuch dostoon ke diloo ko hum torr aaye hain
Aur kuch waadoo ko adhoora chor aaye hain
Koi hai jo luta day mere dais ke galleyaan
Bhoolay na bhula paayenge apne dais ki galleyaan …
