dstar-e-faqirana ek taj se afzun hai
rah-e-tarah-e-KHum-KHana mearaj se afzun hai
aise hi hukumat hai aise hi ibaadat hai
ye shah-e-faqirana mohtaj se afzun hai
chalte ho paristan mein pariyan hain bahut shaeq
ab husn-e-pari-KHana phir aaj se afzun hai
kya gham hai chhalak jae saghar mera ai saqi
wo takna paimana aamaj se afzun hai
phir hoe fuzun daulat 'aKHtar' ye dua de tu
ye faqra-e-pirana ek raj se afzun hai
Ghazal
Dstar-e-faqirana ek taj se afzun hai
Wajid Ali Shah Akhtar
