اللہ ہو ۔ ندا فاضلی
برندابن کے کرشن کنہیّا اللہ ہو
بنسی رادھا گیتا گیّا اللہ ہو
تھوڑے تنکے تھوڑے دانے تھوڑا جل
ایک ہی جیسی ہر گوریّا اللہ ہو
جیسا جس کا برتن ویسا اس کا تن
گھٹتی بڑھتی گنگا میّا اللہ ہو
ایک ہی دریا نیلا پیلا لال ہرا
اپنی اپنی سب کی نیّا اللہ ہو
مولویوں کا سجدہ پنڈت کی پوجا
مزدوروں کی ہیّا ہیّا اللہ ہو
अल्लाह हू – निदा फ़ाज़ेली
बृन्दाबन के कृष्न कन्हय्या अल्लाह हू
बंसी राधा गीता गय्या अल्लाह हू
थोड़े तिनके थोड़े दाने थोड़ा जल
एक ही जैसी हर गौरय्या अल्लाह हू
जैसा जिस का बर्तन वैसा उस का तन
घटती बढ़ती गंगा मय्या अल्लाह हू
एक ही दरिया नीला पीला लाल हरा
अपनी अपनी सब की नय्या अल्लाह हू
मौलवियों का सज्दा पंडित की पूजा
मज़दूरों की हैय्या हैय्या अल्लाह हू
allah hu – nida faazli
