ism-e-azam
bahut achchha hua tha man ne meri

sikhla diye the ism sare
mujh ko bachpan mein

tamam aayat-e-qurani wazife aur munajaten
ki jin ke wird se sari balaen dur rahti hain

hisar un ka har aafat aur musibat se bachata hai
unhi ke hifz se hoti rahi mushkil-kushai aur masihai

magar jab wajud us ka
mujassam ajnabi ban kar

gurezan ho gaya mujh se
azab jaankani ban kar

khayal aaya ki shayad bas
wahi ek ism-e-azam man mujhe sikhla nahin pai

jise padhne se us ki sard-mehri sard pad jae
jo us ke dil ka zangi qufl khole aur wo mujh ko

faqat ek bar izn-e-baryabi de
aazab-e-narasai khatm kar de aur

nawed-e-shadmani de
