Oh shehar madina jad main takeya
Mere thand pai gayi vich sinay
Othay main reh ke aa gaya sadiq
Akhan reh giyan shehar madinay

Aaqa meriyan akhiyan madine wich reh gayan
Muk gaya visa tay judaiyan phir pai gaiyan
Tusan te menoon dar te sadeya, Wele Mainu shehroon kadiya
Tere dar diyan sohniyan yaadan, Aaqa mera saath

na chadeya
Nit diyan sochan hun, jind meri legaiyanAabe Zamzam peende reyan, do din sukh naal jeende reyan
Tere ghar di chaukat de assi, mangte roz sadende reyan
Mangiyan muraadan si jo, chauli meri pai gaiyan
Phir main wekhan roza tera, soh rab di dil karda mera
Je kidre manzoori howe, laalaan othe pakka dera
Lakhan majburiyan ne, rawan wich pai gaiyan
Aaqa teri shaan nu wekhan, chuk de kul jahaan nu wekhan
Jere tere kol ne suthe, Umar, Siddique, Usman nu wekhan
Jina tere kadman wich, thaawan aaqa le laiyan
Jad main takya sher e madina, roshan hogeya mera seena
Soh salaan tu wadh lagda si pawein si oh ik maheena
Sadiq Ghumbad e Khazra tak ke, tandan mainoon pai gaiyan
Aaqa meriyan akhiyan madine wich reh gayan
Muk gaya visa te judaiyan phir pai gaiyan
