raghupati raghaw raja ram
patit pawan sita ram
tulsi ki ramayan ke
ram ki lila wale ram
bachpan mein the dost mere
aur laDakpan mein ham-jam
qasbe qasbe nagar nagar
jahan bhi le pahunche ayyam
nam tumhaara chalta tha
ban jate the bigDe kaam
des to kya pardes mein bhi
hamrahi the tum har gam
mile jakarta mein bhi tum
lila mein ban kar islam
desh jo lauTa phir na mile
DhunDa tum ko har ek dham
pata chala ki qaid ho tum
chaaron taraf tirshul ka dam
rath-yatra mein mare gae
ram ki lila wale ram
aur december chhe ke baad
jis ja dekho qatl-e-am
raghupati raghaw raja ram patit pawan sita ram
Ghazal
Raghupati raghaw raja ram
Ashok Lal
