galiyan hain bahut si abhi diwar ke aage
sansar milenge tujhe sansar ke aage

mani ki nai sharhen thin har baat mein us ki
iqrar se pahle kabhi inkar ke aage

taqdir jise kahte hain duniya ke mufakkir
zardar ke pichhe hai to nadar ke aage

in ko bhi samajhna hai abhi sahab-e-idrak
hote hain haqaeq bhi to akhbar ke aage

kya izzat-e-sadat zara der na thahri
dastar bhi pazeb ki jhankar ke aage

ab hath qalam hone hain kya guzri ho socho
jab baat gai hogi ye meamar ke aage

mahdud hi hoti hai sada satwat-e-shamshir
lana hai qalam ko teri talwar ke aage
