chaman hai maqtal-e-naghma ab aur kya kahiye

jis dam ye suna hai subh-e-watan mahbus faza-e-zindan mein

ye ruke ruke se aansu ye dabi dabi si aahen

dushman ki dosti hai ab ahl-e-watan ke sath

aabla-pa koi guzra tha jo pichhle san mein

ahl-e-tufan aao dil-walon ka afsana kahen

ab ahl-e-dard ye jine ka ehtimam karen

jala ke mishal-e-jaan hum junun-sifat chale

su-e-maqtal ki pae sair-e-chaman jate hain

jab hua irfan to gham aaram-e-jaan banta gaya

mere pichhe ye to muhaal hai ki zamana garm-e-safar na ho

hon jo sare dast o pa hain KHun main nahlae hue

is bagh mein wo sang ke qabil kaha na jae

aah-e-jaan-soz ki mahrumi-e-tasir na dekh

jo samjhate bhi aa kar waiz-e-barham to kya karte
