qadam qadam pe jo apna nishan banate hain
zamin pe chalte hain aur kahkashan banate hain

har ek lamha wo tufan par nazar rakkhen
kanar-e-bahr jo apna makan banate hain

buri nazar na koi sarhadon se par uthe
hum ab watan ke liye pasban banate hain

na bu-e-gul na ana ki ramaq mili un mein
jo wahshaton ka sada aashiyan banate hain

hamare baad ki naslen banengi kya 'manzar'
zamin ko baaton mein hum aashiyan banate hain
