tuyur-e-fikr-o-sukhan ki udan zinda hai
khuda ka shukr ki urdu zaban zinda hai

tanaben kat din jis ne meri zamin ke sath
use kaho ki abhi aasman zinda hai

ajab hai gumbad-e-be-dar ki gunj sun lena
samaaton pe tera ye guman zinda hai

nagar ki pukhta haweli mein ghut ke marne se
chalo ki ganw ka kachcha makan zinda hai

paron ko baith gaya kyon samet kar apne
udan bhar ki abhi aasman zinda hai

khuda ke ghar ko giraya to kya kamal kiya
kamal ye hai ki ab bhi azan zinda hai

bahut hi khush hain fasadi jala ke ghar mera
khabar nahin ki mera khandan zinda hai

hamara khun hai shamil watan ki mitti mein
hamare dam se hi hindostan zinda hai

yazidiyat to 'raza' hai fana ki manzil mein
husainiyat tera nam-o-nishan zinda hai
