tere kisan ke sine mein hasraton ka hujum
teri fazaon mein har beTi man bahan maghmum
tere gharib ki aankhon mein sail-e-ashk rawan
tu ek watan hai ki ujDe hue watan ka nishan
khinchi huin tere mathe pe is qadar shiknen
khaDi huin tere sine pe itni diwaren
baha hai kitna lahu aaj tere daman par
KHizan ye kis ne bichai hai tere gulshan par
udas aankhon mein kitne KHushi ke KHwab hain aaj
teri zamin ke qarz hum pe be-hisab hain aaj
hum ek subh-e-daraKHshan ko ab taraste hain
andhere teri fazaon ke hum ko Daste hain
koi to aae jo hum ko jagae ghaflat se
ki hum bhi uTh ke sanwaren tujhe mohabbat se
tere wajud ne jaise hamein sanwara hai
tere KHulus ne jaise hamein nikhaara hai
Nazm
