fitna utthe koi ya ghat mein dushman baithe
kar-e-ulfat pe to ab hazrat-e-dil than baithe

shaikh ka'be mein kalisa mein barahman baithe
hum to kuche mein tere mar ke aasan baithe

su-e-daulat nazar aai na jo rah-e-e'zaz
masnad-e-sabr-o-tawakkul hi pe hum tan baithe

hun main wo rind agar hashr mein mulzim thahrun
faisle ke liye huron ka commission baithe

inqilab-e-rawish-e-charkh ko dekh ai 'akbar'
kal jo the dost mere aaj 'adu ban baithe

hind se aap ko hijrat ho mubarak 'akbar'
hum to ganga hi pe ab mar ke aasan baithe
