dil mein iman to hai jazba-e-iman na sahi
hum musalman to hain shan-e-musalman na sahi

rab ki rahmat ka sahaara hi hamein kafi hai
aaj duniya mein koi apna nigahban na sahi

tin sau terah ne ye badr mein paigham diya
azm-o-iman hai to jang ka saman na sahi

hum to hain aaj bhi tazin-e-gulistan mein sharik
apne hathon mein nahin nazm-e-gulistan na sahi

aslahon ki mere qatil ko zarurat kya hai
tir-e-mizhgan hai bahut khanjar-o-paikan na sahi

main ne palkon pe saja rakkhe hain ashkon ke charagh
mere tute hue chhappar mein charaghan na sahi

mal-o-zar pas nahin tosha-e-ulfat ke siwa
koi saman to hai zist ka saman na sahi

aaj ki shab kisi bhuke ki ziyafat kar de
ghar mein tere nahin 'ahsan' koi mehman na sahi
