Nai tahzib

ye maujuda tariqe rahi-e-mulk-e-adam honge
nai tahzib hogi aur nae saman baham honge

nae unwan se zinat dikhaenge hasin apni
na aisa pech zulfon mein na gesu mein ye KHam honge

na KHatunon mein rah jaegi parde ki ye pabandi
na ghunghaT is tarah se hajib-e-ru-e-sanam honge

badal jaega andaz-e-tabae daur-e-gardun se
nai surat ki KHushiyan aur nae asbab-e-gham honge

na paida hogi KHat-e-nasKH se shan-e-adab-agin
na nastaliq harf is taur se zeb-e-raqam honge

KHabar deti hai tahrik-e-hawa tabdil-e-mausam ki
khilenge aur hi gul zamzame bulbul ke kam honge

aqaed par qayamat aaegi tarmim-e-millat se
naya kaba banega maghribi putle sanam honge

bahut honge mughanni naghma-e-taqlid europe ke
magar bejoD honge is liye be-tal-o-sam honge

hamari istelahon se zaban na-ashna hogi
lughat-e-maghribi bazar ki bhasha se zam honge

badal jaega meyar-e-sharafat chashm-e-duniya mein
ziyaada the jo apne zoam mein wo sab se kam honge

guzishta azmaton ke tazkire bhi rah na jaenge
kitabon hi mein dafn afsana-e-jah-o-hasham honge

kisi ko is taghayyur ka na his hoga na gham hoga
hue jis saz se paida usi ke zer-o-bam honge

tumhein is inqilab-e-dahr ka kya gham hai ai 'akbar'
bahut nazdik hain wo din ki tum hoge na hum honge
