kabhi kabhi to suna hai hila diye hain mahal
hamare aise gharibon ki iltijaon ne

Salam Machhli shahri

yun hi aankhon mein aa gae aansu
jaiye aap koi baat nahin

Salam Machhli shahri

---

---

wo sirf main hun jo sau jannaten saja kar bhi
udas udas sa tanha dikhai dene lage

Salam Machhli shahri

wo dil se tang aa ke aaj mahfil mein husn ki tamkanat ki KHatir
nazar bachana bhi chahte hain nazar milana bhi chahte hain

Salam Machhli shahri

---

tum sharab pi kar bhi hosh-mand rahte ho
jaane kyun mujhe aisi mai-kashi nahin aai

Salam Machhli shahri

---

---

shukriya ai gardish-e-jam-e-sharab
main bhari mahfil mein tanha ho gaya

Salam Machhli shahri

---

---

oz puja ke liye phul sajata hai 'salam'
jaane kab us ka KHuda su-e-zamin aaega

Salam Machhli shahri

---

---

aat dil ko tha sahar ka intizar
ab ye gham hai kyun sawera ho gaya

Salam Machhli shahri

---

---

meri maut ai saqi irtiqa hai hasti ka
ek 'salam' jata hai ek aane wala hai

Salam Machhli shahri
