हमसे पूछो इज़्ज़त वालों की इज़्ज़त का हाल कभी

हमसे पूछो इज़्ज़त वालों की इज़्ज़त का हाल कभी

हमनें भी इस शहर में रह कर, थोडा नाम कमाया है

Hamse poochho izzat waalo.n kii izzat ka haal kabhi, 

hamne bhii is shehar me.n reh kar, thodaa naam kamaaya hai

Ask me, and I will tell you the plight of the respectable people

After all, I too am one of the respectable people in this city
