roun to khushk aankh mein aansu kahan se aae
bolun to bhi zaban pe qabu kahan se aae

bahno tumhaari mang ka sindur kya hua
bachchon tumhaare hath mein chaqu kahan se aae

insaf ka lihaz na taqsim ka shuur
in bandaron ke hath taraazu kahan se aae

wo ehtiram-e-masjid-o-mandir kahan gae
ye sadhuon ke bhes mein daku kahan se aae

hain ek ghar ke log yahan ghair kaun hai
phir ye muamalat-e-man-o-tu kahan se aae

aapas ki ranjishen hain ki bahar ki sazishen
ye zid ye ikhtilaf ke pahlu kahan se aae

allah kaise aa gai lafzon mein raushni
meri bayaz-e-sher mein jugnu kahan se aae
