bech kar tahzib daulat ke pujari ho gae
is zamane ke sukhanwar bhi madari ho gae

rakh ke wo mizan par diwan apna ro pade
jab kisi ke be-sure alfaz bhaari ho gae

hum ne ek mandir mein dekhi aaj aisi murti
aadmi to aadmi patthar pujari ho gae

inqalab aaya to hai lekin ye kaisa inqalab
chintiyon ko marne wale shikari ho gae

ishq ke bazar se laute hain dil ko haar kar
din-o-iman tum sambhaalo hum juari ho gae

kaun samjhae samundar ke thapedon ko 'fahim'
kaise kaise waqt ke aage bhikari ho gae
