bala se hum ko latkae agar sarkar phansi se
latakte aae aksar paikar-e-isar phansi se

lab-e-dam bhi na kholi zalimon ne hathkadi meri
tamanna thi ki karta main lipat kar pyar phansi se

khuli hai mujh ko lene ke liye aaghosh-e-azadi
khusha ki ho gaya mahbub ka didar phansi se

kabhi o be-khabar tahrik-e-azadi bhi rukti hai
badha karti hai is ki tezi-e-raftar phansi se

yahan tak sarfaroshan-e-watan badh jaenge qatil
ki latkane padenge nit tujhe do-chaar phansi se

nazar aaenge har su sham-e-azadi ke parwane
hazaron murda dil ho jaenge bedar phansi se

farishte aasman se bahr-e-pa-bosi utarte hain
ki 'sabir' jhulte hain desh ke sardar phansi se
