dard-o-gham se dil-shikasta ho to ho
phir purana zakhm taza ho to ho

bhuk kahti hai ki kasa tham le
zarf kahta hai ki faqa ho to ho

shahron shahron qatilon ki bhid hai
ganw mein koi farishta ho to ho

zalimon ke ghar ujala ho gaya
apni duniya mein andhera ho to ho

hum ko karna hai ilaj-e-dard-e-dil
un ki khatir gar masiha ho to ho

wo karenge apne haq mein faisla
aur sansad mein tamasha ho to ho

is sadi ke mir-jafar dhund lo
chahe is mein kuchh khasara ho to ho

hum na apna tarz badlenge kabhi
hum se ye aalam kashida ho to ho

baat hai 'irfan' ye insaf ki
wo khafa hota hai to kya ho to ho
