agar hon goya to phir be-takan bolte hain
agar hoñ goyā to phir be-takān bolte haiñ
magar ye log lahū kī zabān bolte haiñ
zamīñ jo paañv ke nīche hai us kā mālik huuñ
pe mere naam pe kitne lagān bolte haiñ
chhupā na qatl mirā ehtiyāt ke bā-vasf
jo us ne chhoḌe nahīñ vo nishān bolte haiñ
zamīñ pe jab koī mazlūm aah bhartā hai
sitāre TūTte haiñ āsmān bolte haiñ
chhupā.e chhupte nahīñ hādse jo guzre hoñ
makīn chup hoñ to 'ahmad' makān bolte haiñ
agar hon goya to phir be-takan bolte hain
magar ye log lahu ki zaban bolte hain
zamin jo panw ke niche hai us ka malik hun
pe mere nam pe kitne lagan bolte hain
chhupa na qatl mera ehtiyat ke ba-wasf
jo us ne chhoDe nahin wo nishan bolte hain
zamin pe jab koi mazlum aah bharta hai
sitare TuTte hain aasman bolte hain
chhupae chhupte nahin hadse jo guzre hon
makin chup hon to 'ahmad' makan bolte hain
