yahi nahin hai ki shanon se khun bahta hai
abhi to apni miyanon se khun bahta hai

wo gal surkh hue hon to yun lagen jaise
safed reshmi thanon se khun bahta hai

ye khamushi wo bala hai ki chikh utthe agar
to sunne walon ke kanon se khun bahta hai

hamare khwab patakte hain yun hamare sar
tamam raat sirhanon se khun bahta hai

wo jang jit ke unton ka rukh badalne lage
abhi to un ki machanon se khun bahta hai

ye apne daur ke sab se bade munafiq hain
isi liye to zabanon se khun bahta hai

tamam waqt guzarta hai zakhm sahlate
tarah tarah ke bahanon se khun bahta hai

hamein to ilm sikhaya nahin hai thonpa hai
hamare ilmi khazanon se khun bahta hai

na jaane kitne zamane guzar gae sahir
na jaane kitne zamanon se khun bahta hai
