sham-e-umid jalate hue mar jaenge
dasht-e-zulmat basate hue mar jaenge

hum pe ilzam pe ilzam lagaenge log
aur hum zakhm dikhate hue mar jaenge

shahr dar shahr hai ek shoala-nawai ka chalan
log ye aag bujhate hue mar jaenge

aatish-amez hai dariyaon mein pani ka mizaj
aab-kash pyas bujhate hue mar jaenge
