achchhe din kab aaenge
— Mohammad Alvi
Achchhe din kab aa.enge
Kya yuun hee mar jaa.enge
Apne-aap ko khawabon se
Kab tak ham bahlaa.enge
Bamba.ee men Thahrenge kahaan
Dillee men kya khaa.enge
Khilte hain to khilne do
Phuul abhee murjhaa.enge
Kitnee achchhee laDkee hai
Barson bhuul na paa.enge
Maut na aa.ee to 'alvee'
ChhuTTee men ghar jaa.enge
