be-zabanon ki kahani ki zaban hote rahe
hum to yaro barha ashk-e-rawan hote rahe

dil pe chahe jitne khanjar ho lage ai jaan-e-jaan
us gali mein hum sarasar raegan hote rahe

jam aisa dal saqi zahr sa ab pis kar
aaj us ko dekh sab jalwe ayan hote rahe

jaan maqtal par luta di be-sabab 'khuddar' ne
jurm us ke lan-tarani se bayan hote rahe

is nagar mein be-asar baada-kashi 'khuddar' ki
wo na jaane kin ghamon mein na-tawan hote rahe
