ghadi-bhar khalwaton ko aanch de kar bujh gaya suraj
kisi ke dard ki lai par kahan tak nachta suraj

nigahon mein nae andaz se phir raushni hogi
jab ug aaega zehnon mein hamare ek naya suraj

zamin ka karb auj-e-asman par bhi jhalak uttha
nasheb-e-koh par jurat se jab jab aa mila suraj

hamare ghar ke aangan mein sitare bujh gae lakhon
hamari khwab gahon mein na chamka subh ka suraj

shabistan-dar-shabistan zulmaton ki ek yurish hai
har ek daman se lipta hai larazta hanpta suraj

hamare baam-e-dar se aaj bhi lipti hai tariki
hamare aasmanon mein batao kab uga suraj

suna di dastan apni jo hum ne be-zaban ho kar
misal-e-qatra shabnam bikhar kar ro pada suraj
