Chamakte lafz sitaaron se chheen laaye hain..

Chamakte lafz sitaaron se chheen laaye hain,
Ham aasmaanon se ghazal ki zameen laaye hain,

Woh aur honge jo khanjar chupaa ke laate hain,
Hum apne saath phattii aasteen laaye hain,

Hamaari baat ki gehraayi khaak samjhen ge,
Jo parbaton ke liye khurdbeen laaye hain,

Hansso na hum pe ke har bdnaseeb banjaare,
Saron pe raakh ke vatan ki zameen laaye hain,

Mere qabeele ke bachon ke khail bhi hain ajeeb,
Kisi sipaahi ki talvaar chheen laaye hain..
