Mera bharat mahaan hai

bachpan me kabhi suna tha ki mera bharat mahaan hai,
aajkal koi ye nahi kehta ki sach mein desh mahaan hai,

bhool k jung san sattawan ki bhool gaye sab balidaan hai,
dharm k naam pe baant k aaj ek bharat ek pakistan hai,

kal tak ye suna tha ki hamara ek hi hindustan hai,
aaj usi ke tukde hoke koi punjab koi rajasthan hai,

aaj dharm k naam pe uth raha har taraf toofaan hai,
koi hai hindu, koi hai sikh, koi hota musalman hai,

koi bible, koi bhagwat geeta , kisi ka naam quraan hai,
kehne ko sab kitaaben hain par sabka alag alag naam hai,

dharam k naam pe bhed bhaw q karta aaj insaan hai,
ek gagan k niche hi rehte, sabka ek bhagwaan hai,

insaano k khoon ka pyaasa ban gaya aaj insaan hai,
kal tak jisko nar kehte the aaj bana haiwaan hai,

kal tak naari maata thi, aaj karte uska apmaan hain,
zulm-o-sitam wo seh nahi paati, deti wo apne praan hai,

takshashila naalanda tha kal, aaj yahaan agyaan hai,
pita ki jama punji ko lutana aaj bachcho ki shaan hai,

chhote me kabhi suna tha humne maata pita bhagwaan hain,
aaj vriddhashram me rakhte hain unko aise to santaan hain,

bin vyaahe hi maa ban jaati aaj ki naari mahaan hai,
pyaar k naam pe chhal karna aaj k yuva ki pehchaan hai,

kahin pe chori, kahin pe loot, kahin pe qatl-e-aam hai,
aasmaan me khauff k baadal subah se lekar shaam hai,

kahin pe bhasha, kahin pe jaati, kahin dharm k naam hai,
aaj insaano k zulm ka shikaar hota sirf insaan hai,

kabhi kabhi to sochta hoon main ki badal gaya insaan hai,
itni nafrat, itna vinaash, usi ka to pramaan hai,

aaj nafraton ki aag me dekho jal raha hinduatan hai,
aap hi kaho main kaise kahun ki mera desh mahaan hai...
