dida-o-dil meri sarkar utha lae hain
hum qafas mein bhi tera pyar utha lae hain

kaise chhinenge bhala hum se mohabbat teri
hum tere kucha-o-bazar utha lae hain

lakh viran sahi gosha-e-zindan lekin
hum to tere lab-o-rukhsar utha lae hain

zang-alud pade the teri ghaflat ke sabab
hum wahi dard ke hathiyar utha lae hain

hum se banti na gain bachchon mein khushiyan ab ke
id ke din rasan-o-dar utha lae hain

husn-e-yusuf teri hurmat ko bachane ke liye
hum yahan misr ka bazar utha lae hain

surkh-rui ki numaish thi sar-e-bazm-e-jahan
mere qatil meri dastar utha lae hain

main to ek umr se khamosh pada tha 'safdar'
mere dushman mera pindar utha lae hain
