sadiyon philosophy ki chunan aur chunin rahi
lekin khuda ki baat jahan thi wahin rahi

zor-azmaiyan huin science ki bhi khub
taqat badhi kisi ki kisi mein nahin rahi

duniya kabhi na sulh pe mail hui magar
baham hamesha barsar-e-paikar-o-kin rahi

paya agar farogh to sirf un nufus ne
jin ki ki khizr-e-rah faqat sham-e-din rahi

allah hi ki yaad bahar-haal khalq mein
wajh-e-sukun-e-khatir-e-andoh-gin rahi
