khadd-o-khal se khali hai
ye taswir to jali hai

kahte hain marg-e-mufajat
hukm-e-janab-e-ali hai

lashkar-e-ishaal-zada ki
main ne kaman sambhaali hai

duniya ki aawaz suno
ek hi hath ki tali hai

har ek insan ke andar
baitha ek mawali hai

amla moattal hai dil ka
jari sai-e-bahaali hai

qimat alag hai khaslat ek
ye gandum wo shaali hai

sher ki jast ko kafi bas
mast hiran ki jugali hai

mat phatko mujh dil ke pas
ye darwesh jalali hai

'shafaq'! ab apne bare mein
kya afwah uda li hai
