hamare dasht ke zarron mein gum hai pahnai
inhi mein dhundiye maidan-e-abla-pai

wakil-e-kufr tha kal goya qasr-e-kabul mein
wahin se surat-e-annasr ki sada aai

junun-e-dajl mein shahzada shahr-saz hai ab
wo bad-nasib ki tha asl mein to sahrai

hadaf hain khilji-o-aurangzeb aur aazad
ki un ka jurm tha apne watan ki yakjai

hazar nukte kiye zehn ne nae paida
kisi ke kaam na aai magar ye danai

main is jahan mein koi misal ban na saka
maashre ne ata ki hai mujh ko tanhai

idhar to asia bhi koh-e-barf hai 'tariq'
safed sahaton mein soch bhi hai sarmai
