aise the mere pitah

bargad ki gehri chaav jaise,

zindagi ki dhup mein ghanne shaaye jaise,
the mere pitah.

ghar par ishwar ka roop jaise,
chubhati dhoop mein sahlaate,
mere pitah

bacchon sang bacche ban khelte,
unko uphaar dilla kar khushi dete,
bacchon ko yun hi muskuraao ki dua dete,
aise the mere pitah.

sankat mein pathwaar ban khade hote,
aashray sthal jaise the mere pitah.

bund bund sab ko sameet-te,
andhere mein de kar hausla,
kehte mere pitah,
tumko kiska dar hai?

ghumon ki bheed mein hasna sikhate,
mere pitah.
aur apne dum par tufaanon se lardna,

kisi ke aage tum nahi jhukna,
yeh sikhalaate mere pitah.

pariwaar ki himmat aur vishwas the,
umeed aur aas ki pehchaan the mere pitah.
