Shehar haay khub kya hai yeh, shehar amrud ka hai yeh
Shehar hai ilaahbaad
Shehar haay khub kya hai yeh, shehar amrud ka hai yeh
Shehar hai ilaahbaad
Ha yahi rahe the harivansh hamaare, kya khub niraala baashk dulaare
Kabhi toh ganga ko chum le, kabhi toh jamuna ko chum le
Sarswati aake jhum le waah waah waah waah

Ai yeh toh amitaabh ka chatpati chaat ka
Saath mein hai kalam dabaat aur kitaab ka
Chutkule hai yahaan phir bhi gambhir hai
Hai maja yahin toh yahaan ke sang saath ka
Woh hai al ? parkke jo hai itana paak
Ladate ladate yahin mare ??
Yeh toh ilhaabaad hai isaki kya baat hai
Yeh tamaam sheharon ka taaj meri jaan
Shehar haay khub kya hai yeh, shehar amrud ka hai yeh
Shehar hai ilaahbaad
Shehar haay khub kya hai yeh, shehar amrud ka hai yeh
Shehar hai ilaahbaad

Sangam ki naav sedeta koyi taan hai
Woh dekho saamane aanadbhavan mein shaam hai
Pandit neharu hoke haan laal bahaadur shaastri
Hindosta ke takht ke janmein hai raaja yahin
Rasakjano ka khaur hai yeh, mahaadevi ka maan hai yeh
Netraam ka chauraaha aaj bhi isaki shaan hai yeh
Albela yeh furtila magar ruk ruk ke chalata hai
Mehanga na kharchila tanik thoda alag sa shehar hai yeh

Shehar haay khub kya hai yeh, shehar amrud ka hai yeh
Shehar hai ilaahbaad
Shehar haay khub kya hai yeh, shehar amrud ka hai yeh
Shehar hai ilaahbaad
Ha yahi rahe the harivansh hamaare, kya khub niraala baashk dulaare
Kabhi toh ganga ko chum le, kabhi toh jamuna ko chum le
Sarswati aake jhum le waah waah waah waah.
