pahle mere panw mein zanjir-e-isyan dekhiye
phir tamasha-e-tilism-e-bazm-e-imkan dekhiye

khun-e-dil khun-e-jigar ka naqsh-e-uryan dekhiye
apne munh se kya kahun rang-e-gulistan dekhiye

aur sab kuchh hai yahan insaniyat mafqud hai
ab tasawwur mein faqat insan ko insan dekhiye

tur ho ya arsh donon hi dil-e-insan mein hain
us ko apni zat mein nazd-e-rag-e-jaan dekhiye

chand par dale kamanden aur khud se be-khabar
dekhiye kotahi-e-idrak-e-insan dekhiye

aag mein gir jaiye mohkam agar iman hai
aur phir shoalon mein andaz-e-gulistan dekhiye

be-kasi mein tarjuman-e-haal-e-dil hota hai gham
meri khamoshi hai afsane ka unwan dekhiye
