Sura-e-fatiha

ek sura-e-fatiha
un logon ke liye

jo kisi ek zaban mein
mohabbat ki nazm nahin likh sake

aur ek un logon ke liye
jo kisi dusri zaban mein

diwar par likhe hue nare na paDh sake
un logon ke liye

ek sura-e-fatiha
jo ajnabi zaban mein

zindagi ki bhik na mang sake
jo ek nai zaban mein sach ka matlab

aur aazadi ka mafhum na samajh sake
jo kisi ek zaban mein mohabbat ki nazm

aur kisi dusri zaban mein
diwar par likhe hue nare na paDh sake

aur jo apne darwaze ke samne
apne doston ke liye khile hue phul na toD sake

aur jo hawa mein apne dushmanon ki taraf
ek patthar bhi na uchhaal sake

aur un sab ke liye
jo kisi ki yaad mein apni aankhon ka ruKH

kisi ke dil ki taraf na kar sake
aur un sab ke liye bhi

jin ka ruKH apni banduqon ki taraf
aur un ki banduqon ka ruKH

un ke hatheliyon ki taraf hai
