bar-sar-e-rozgar the hum to
'jaun' yaron ke yar the hum to

chal diye dost to ye dhyan aaya
sirf ek rahguzar the hum to

ab ghulamon ke bhi ghulam hue
sahab-e-iqtidar the hum to

khul ke roe hain to yaqin aaya
waqai jaan-dar the hum to

jab gire tut kar to ye dekha
chaar su be-shumar the hum to

hamein thukra diya gaya hai 'zaki'
rukh-e-parwardigar the hum to
