raat ke raahi 
raat ke raahi thak mat jaana 
subah ki manzil door naheen, door nahi 
raat ke raahi ... 

dharati ke phaile aangan mein 
pal do pal hai raat ka dera 
dharati ke phaile aangan mein 
pal do pal hai raat ka dera 
zulm ka seena cheer ke dekho 
jhaank raha hai naya savera 
dhalata din majaboor sahi 
chadhata sooraj majaboor naheen, majaboor nahi 
thak mat jaanaa, ho raahi thak mat jaana 
raat ke raahi ... 

sadiyon tak chup rahanevaale 
ab apana haq leke rahenge 
sadiyon tak chup rahanevaale 
ab apana haq leke rahenge 
jo karana hai khul ke karenge 
jo kahana hai saaf kahenge 
jeete ji ghut ghut kar marana 
is jag ka dastoor naheen, dastoor nahi 
thak mat jaanaa, ho raahi thak mat jaana 
raat ke raahi ... 

tootengi bojhal zanjeeren 
jaagengi soyi taqadeeren 
tootengi bojhal zanjeeren 
jaagengi soyi taqadeeren 
loot pe kab tak pahara dengi 
zang lagi khuneen shamasheeren 
rah nahi sakata is duniya mein 
jo sab ko manzoor naheen, manzoor nahi 
thak mat jaanaa, ho raahi thak mat jaana 
raat ke raahi ...
