shekh ne naqus ke sur mein jo khud hi tan li
phir to yaron ne bhajan gane ki khul kar than li

muddaton qaim rahengi ab dilon mein garmiyan
main ne photo le liya us ne nazar pahchan li

ro rahe hain dost meri lash par be-ikhtiyar
ye nahin daryaft karte kis ne is ki jaan li

main to engine ki gale-bazi ka qail ho gaya
rah gae naghme hudi-khwanon ke aisi tan li

hazrat-e-'akbar' ke istiqlal ka hun mo'tarif
ta-ba-marg us par rahe qaim jo dil mein than li
