Jab Aadamii Ke Pet Mein Aatii Hain Rotiyaan
Phuulii Nahiin Badan Mein Samaaatii Hain Rotiyaan
Aankhen Pariirukhon Se Ladaatii Hain Rotiyaan
Siine Uupar Bhii Haath Chalaatii Hain Rotiyaan
Jitane Maze Hain Sab Ye Dikhaatii Hain Rotiyaan
Rotii Se Jis Kaa Naak Talak Pet Hai Bharaa

Sau Sau Tarah Kii Dhuum Machaatii Hain Rotiyaan
Jis Jaa Pe Haandii Chuulhaa Tavaa Aur Tanuur Hai
Khaaliq Ke Qudaraton Kaa Usii Jaa Zahuur Hai
Chuulhe Ke Aage Aanch Jo Jalatii Hazuur Hai

Pedaa Har Ek Us Kaa Hai Barfii-O-Motii Chuur
Hargiz Kisii Tarah Na Bujhe Pet Kaa Tanuur

Puuchhaa Kisii Ne Ye Kisii Kaamil Faqiir Se
Ye Mehr-O-Maah Haq Ne Banaaye Hain Kaahe Ke
Vo Sun Ke Bolaa Baabaa Khudaa Tujh Ko Khair De
Ham To Na Chaand Samajhe Na Suuraj Hain Jaanate
Baabaa Hamen To Ye Nazar Aatii Hain Rotiyaan

Jitane Hain Kashf Sab Ye Dikhaatii Hain Rotiyaan
Rotii Jab Aaii Pet Men Sau Qand Ghul Gaye
Gulzaar Phuule Aankhon Men Aur Aish Tul Gaye
Do Tar Nivaale Pet Men Jab Aa Ke Dhul Gaye
Chaudaa Tabaq Ke Jitane The Sab Bhed Khul Gaye
Ye Kashf Ye Kamaal Dikhaatii Hain Rotiyaan
Rotii Na Pet Men Ho To Phir Kuchh Jatan Na Ho
Mele Kii Sair Khvaahish-E-Baag-O-Chaman Na Ho
Bhuuke Gariib Dil Kii Khudaa Se Lagan Na Ho
Sach Hai Kahaa Kisii Ne Ke Bhuuke Bhajan Na Ho
Allaah Kii Bhii Yaad Dilaatii Hain Rotiyaan
Ab Jin Ke Aage Maalpuye Bhar Ke Thaal Hain
Puurii Bhagat Unhiin Kii Vo Saahab Ke Laal Hain
Aur Jin Ke Aage Rauganii Aur Shiirmaal Hai
Aarif Vohii Hain Aur Vohii Saahab Kamaal Hain
Pakii Pakaaii Ab Jinhen Aatii Hain Rotiyaan
Kapade Kisii Ke Laal Hain Rotii Ke Vaaste
Lambe Kisii Ke Baal Hain Rotii Ke Vaaste
Baandhe Koii Rumaal Hai Rotii Ke Vaaste
