zaban ho chup to tewar bolte hain
pas-e-manzar se manzar se bolte hain

bas ek tu hi to hai wo jis ke haq mein
zamin zarraat patthar bolte hain

lahu gar tarjuman-e-bandagi ho
gale tak aa ke khanjar bolte hain

main wo qaidi hun jis se khalwaton mein
gale ke tauq-o-langar bolte hain

sar-e-mahfil jo kuchh khamosh se hain
wo tanhai mein aksar bolte hain
