Tez-tar lahja-e-guftar kiya hai humne

tez-tar lahja-e-guftar kiya hai hum ne
barg-e-gul ko kabhi talwar kiya hai hum ne

shola-e-tegh ko aaghosh-e-nazar mein le kar
zist mein maut ko bhi pyar kiya hai hum ne

kitne mansuron ka KHun de ke tere kuche mein
ehtiram-e-rasan-o-dar kiya hai hum ne

mai-kade walon ko saqi ka hawala de kar
ek aawaz pe hushiyar kiya hai hum ne

ghair ke KHam iradon ko kiya hai paspa
azm ko aahani diwar kiya hai hum ne

amn kahte hain jise ruh hai aazadi ki
ek aalam ko KHabar-dar kiya hai hum ne

ghair ko pahle hi pahchan liya tha lekin
hosh mein aane ko ek war kiya hai hum ne

KHun ke dagh chaTanon pe jo pae hain 'nushur'
chum kar lala-e-kuhsar kiya hai hum ne
