Idhar na dekho

idhar na dekho ki jo bahadur
qalam ke ya tegh ke dhani the

jo azm-o-himmat ke muddai the
ab un ke hathon mein sidq-e-iman ki

aazmuda purani talwar muD gai hai
jo kaj-kulah sahib-e-hasham the

jo ahl-e-dastar mohtaram the
hawas ke pur-pech raston mein

kulah kisi ne girau rakh di
kisi ne dastar bech di hai

udhar bhi dekho
jo apne ruKHshan lahu ke dinar

muft bazar mein luTa kar
nazar se ojhal hue

aur apni lahad mein is waqt tak ghani hain,
udhar bhi dekho

jo harf-e-haq ki salib par apna tan saja kar
jahan se ruKHsat hue

aur ahl-e-jahan mein is waqt tak nabi hain
