bulldozer qadmon se chalti
colony baktar-band nai

behad tausia ke sahra mein
kya sungh rahi hai sund uthae

aadam bu
aankhen palken jhapkate rahne par mamur us ki

be-waqfa-e-khwab
signal ki batti jalti bujhti sada

din ho ya raat
sansani-zada har khatke par aasab

shahid aa hi gaya
aane wala yaum-e-hisab

harba mein khud apne
muhaarib ka

yun dhal jaana
khud ko kho kar ghalba pana

ai dida-e-ibrat-bin
ek turfa-tamasha hai

masnui mashini duniya mein
masnui mashini jit aur haar

jab tak tum tum ho
kuchh nahin khoya hum ne

ai ham-nafsan-e-jafa-dida
ai ham-nafsan-e-hazin

jab tak tum tum ho
aadam-zad yahan

har jabr ke madd-e-muqabil hai
sarmast azal aazad

khush-bash nidar pakiza nihad
tum aalam-e-khwab ke baz ashhab

kibriyat-e-ahmar nayab
phir bhi dhaara sa tumhaare dam se

chahat ke armanon ka
bahta rahta hai dilon mein

tumhaare hote
reza-rez na ho paengi yahan

husn-o-khubi ki ye tabiraat
suhani ujli tamiraat

ba-raunaq jin se
sharq-o-gharb ye bazm-e-jihat
