Kyun hawaon mein, khamoshi chhayi hain,
Kyun khushiyon ki awaaz raat le gayi hain?
Jis gali mein khelti thi beti kabhi,
Aaj dar ke saaye mein kyu chupayi gayi hain?

Hath lagaoge toh darr jayegi,
Bahar nikaloge toh mar jayegi,
(Bachpan mein ek line padi thi)
Kisne socha tha ek din ye line machliyon se,
Beti ke sapno par shift ho jayegi.

Nadiyon mein jo kabhi tairti thi azaad machli,
Aaj wahi beti har pal jeeti hai dari hui si.
Ghar ki chaar diwari mein bhi suraksha nahi,
Samaj ka yeh chehra itna badal gaya kaise ji?

Jis chirag se ghar mein chamak thi,
Aaj wahi beti andheron mein ghiri hain.
Jahan khushiyon ki baarish honi thi,
Wahan aansuon se bhigi har khwaish hain.

Kitabon mein pada tha, insaan hai sabse bada,
Par aaj insaan ka kirdaar, jaanwaron se bhi gaya guzra.
Sabhyata ka daava karta hai ye samaaj,
Par betiyon ke liye kyun nahi insaaf ka raaj?

Subah ki chai ke saath jab akhbaar khola,
Har panne pe dard ka naya silsila,
Syahi sukhne se pehle aayi aur ek khabar,
Phir kisi beti par zulm ka asar.

Mandiron mein devi ki pooja jo karte hain,
Phir ghar ki devi ko kyun sataate hain?
Jis haath ne kalam uthaya tha sapne sajaney ko,
Aaj wahi haath dar raha hain, darinde se bachne ko.

Sadkon pe nikalna, ab ban gaya hain ek jang,
Har kadam par darr ka saath hai sang,
Azadi ka matlab ab sirf kitaabon mein reh gaya,
Beti ka jeevan darr ke saaye mein beh gaya.

Yeh umeed ka diya abhi bhi jalta hai,
Har andhere ke baad ek savera milta hai,
Sangharsh se hi badlega yeh zamaana,
Betiyon ki muskaan se roshan hoga ye jahaan saara.

Hum sabko milkar kadam uthana hoga,
Insaaf ki raah mein kuch karn-dikhana hoga,
Soch ko badalna hai, nayi raah deni hain,
Har beti ko uski sachchi pehchaan delani hain.

Betiyaan toh hai ghar ki shaan aur maan,
Unke bina adhura hai duniya ka har gaan,
Aao milkar aisa samaaj banayein,
Jahan betiyaan bina dar ke sar uthayein.

Phir se likhenge naye itihas ki lakeer,
Jahan beti hogi taqat, na hogi fakir,
Akhbaar bhar jaayenge khushiyon ki khabar se,
Har beti ki kahani hogi jeet aur sapnon se.

Phir na hoga dar aur na honge ansu,
Beti ka har din hoga nayi subah ki aabru,
Jis pal se jeet ki kahani likhi jaayegi,
Tabhi insaaniyat apne maayne samajh paayegi.

Umeed hai ki ek din aayega,
Jab har beti khul ke muskurayegi,
Zindagi ki yeh jang woh jeet jaayegi,
Aur apne sapno ka aasman chhoo paayegi.

Khwab hai ek nayi duniya ka,
Jahan beti ho azaad aur pyari,
Na ho khabar kisi zulm ki,
Sirf dastaan beti ki jeet aur pyaar ki.
