jaane vaale sipahi se poochho 
vo kahaan ja raha hai 

ishq hai qaatil-e-zindagaani 
khoon se tar hai usaki javaani 
haay maasoom bachapan ki yaaden 
haay do roz ki naujavaani 
jaane vaale ... 

kaise sahame hue hain nazaare 
kaise dar dar ke chalate hain taare 
kya javaani ka khoon ho raha hai 
sukhr hai aanchalon ke kinaare 
jaane vaale ... 

kaun dukhiya hai jo ga rahi hai 
bhookhe bachchon ko bahala rahi hai 
laash jalane ki bu a rahi hai 
zindagi hai ki chilla rahi hai 
jaane vaale ...
