Mah O Anjum Ki Raushni Gum Hai

mah o anjum ki raushni gum hai

kya har ek bazm se KHushi gum hai

chand dhundla hai chandni gum hai

husn walon mein dil-kashi gum hai

zindagi gum na dosti gum hai

ye haqiqat hai aadmi gum hai

is taraqqi ko aur kya kahiye

shahr se sidq ki gali gum hai

phul lakhon hain sehn-e-gulshan mein

un ki honTon ki go hansi gum hai

mehnat-e-bagh-ban ka zikr nahin

ghul hai phulon se dil-kashi gum hai

hai taraqqi nae adab ki ye

sher se husn-e-shaeri gum hai

gham batao 'kanwal' kahan DhunDun

bazm-e-alam se dosti gum hai
