bahut haqir hain hum ye guman badal dalo
utho aur uth ke ye tafsir-e-jaan badal dalo

nigah rahti ho mahdud jin ki phulon tak
tum aise tang-nazar baghban badal dalo

faza-e-amn agar zindagi ki qatil ho
to inqilab se amn-o-aman badal dalo

ufuq pe surkhi-e-azm-o-amal jhalak utthi
nuzul-e-subh hai khwab-e-giran badal dalo

qadim-o-kohna adab mohtaram sahi lekin
nai talash se tarz-e-bayan badal dalo

'waqar' zist se paida karo nai tarikh
jo sazgar na hon surkhiyan badal dalo
