Ruh-e-arzi aadam ka istiqbaal karti hai

khol aankh zamin dekh falak dekh faza dekh!
mashriq se ubharte hue suraj ko zara dekh!

is jalwa-e-be-parda ko parda mein chhupa dekh!
ayyam-e-judai ke sitam dekh jafa dekh!

betab na ho marka-e-bim-o-raja dekh!
hain tere tasarruf mein ye baadal ye ghaTaen

ye gumbad-e-aflak ye KHamosh fazaen
ye koh ye sahra ye samundar ye hawaen

thin pesh-e-nazar kal to farishton ki adaen
aaina-e-ayyam mein aaj apni ada dekh!

samjhega zamana teri aankhon ke ishaare!
dekhenge tujhe dur se gardun ke sitare!

napaid tere bahr-e-taKHayyul ke kinare
pahunchenge falak tak teri aahon ke sharare

tamir-e-KHudi kar asar-e-ah-e-rasa dekh
KHurshid-e-jahan-tab ki zau tere sharar mein

aabaad hai ek taza jahan tere hunar mein
jachte nahin baKHshe hue firdaus nazar mein

jannat teri pinhan hai tere KHun-e-jigar mein
ai paikar-e-gul koshish-e-paiham ki jaza dekh!

nalanda tere ud ka har tar azal se
tu jins-e-mohabbat ka KHaridar azal se

tu pir-e-sanam-KHana-e-asrar azal se
mehnat-kash o KHun-rez o kam-azar azal se

hai rakib-e-taqdir-e-jahan teri raza dekh!
