Lyrics: Apani azadi ko
Film: Leader
Music: Naushad
Lyricist: Shakeel Badayuni
 
Apani azadi ko ham haragiz mita sakate nahin
Sar kata sakate hain lekin sar jhuka sakate nahin

Hamane sadiyon men ye azadi ki nemat pai hai
Saikadon qurabaniyan dekar ye daulat pai hai
Muskarakar khai hain sinon pe apane goliyan
Kitane viranon se guzare hain to janat pai hai
Kak men ham apani izat ko mila sakate nahin

Kya chalegi zulm ki ahale vafa ke samane
Ja nahin sakata koi shola hava ke samane
Lakh faujen le ke ai aman ka dushman koi
Ruk nahin sakata hamari ekata ke samane
Ham vo pathar hain jise dushman hila sakate nahin

Vaqt ki azadi ke ham sath chalate jaenge
Har qadam par zindagi ka ruk badalate jaenge
Gar vatan men bhi milega koi gadarevatan
Apani taqat se ham usaka sar kuchalate jaenge
Ek dhokha kha chuke hain aur kha sakate nahin
