jin ke foot-path pe ghar panw mein chhaale honge
un ke zehnon mein na masjid na shiwale honge

bhuke bachchon ki umiden na shikasta ho jaen
man ne kuchh ashk bhi pani mein ubaale honge

tere lashkar mein koi ho to bula le us ko
mera dawa hai ki us samt jiyale honge

jang par jate hue bete ki man se puchho
kaise jazbaat ke tufan sambhaale honge

sajda-e-haq ke liye sina-sipar the ghazi
aise duniya mein kahan chahne wale honge

kuchh na sahil pe milega ki 'shifa' us ne to
dur-e-yakta ke liye bahr khangale honge
