Juman Darbadar

rahandi sindh na sadaa azaaran men hin dhaariyan je takrarn men

rahandi na sutal kaa qoam kadahn akh khole uthi jaa qoam jadahin
pawandi bhaaj tadahn ta ghadaran men.

hi koondhar sabh kar morray uthyaa sabh zor zanjeeran ta ttorray uthyaa
paee galh hali ta ganrwaran men.

windaa ddaadh jabar jaa kotu bhurray ajhay ajj yaa subuh kaa heer churre
pawanda gul tirri gulzaran men.

ajj juman sindh azaad kariyun dei khoon wari aabad kariyun
thiyun shaamil pahinje piyaran men.

chandu lage tho lolo chandu lage tho lolo

Juman Darbadar

mile imdad gairan khan, wiya khaai watan waraa
