koi baDh kar sitam mujh par sitam-ijad kya karta
koī baḌh kar sitam mujh par sitam-ījād kyā kartā
basāyā hī nahīñ jis ko use barbād kyā kartā
sikhāyā bolnā us ko zabān-e-be-zabānī se
agar lab khol letī maiñ vo phir irshād kyā kartā
kahāñ qad nāptā merā bhalā ye sher-e-kam-qāmat
so merā sher bhī pā kar siyāsī daad kyā kartā
nikal vo ḳhud nahīñ paatā shikanj-e-zāt se apnī
jo apnī qaid meñ ḳhud ho mujhe āzād kyā kartā
jahāñ baazū rasan-basta jahāñ qadġhan ho lafzoñ par
koī zanjīr kyā hiltī koī fariyād kyā kartā
agar fitrat ho sīmābī tabī.at bhī ho sailānī
dar-o-dīvār kyā rakhtā vo ghar ābād kyā kartā
rihā.ī zulm se us ke mayassar aur mumkin thī
magar maiñ ne yahī sochā vo mere ba.ad kyā kartā
koi baDh kar sitam mujh par sitam-ijad kya karta
basaya hi nahin jis ko use barbaad kya karta
sikhaya bolna us ko zaban-e-be-zabani se
agar lab khol leti main wo phir irshad kya karta
kahan qad napta mera bhala ye sher-e-kam-qamat
so mera sher bhi pa kar siyasi dad kya karta
nikal wo KHud nahin pata shikanj-e-zat se apni
jo apni qaid mein KHud ho mujhe aazad kya karta
jahan bazu rasan-basta jahan qadghan ho lafzon par
koi zanjir kya hilti koi fariyaad kya karta
agar fitrat ho simabi tabiat bhi ho sailani
dar-o-diwar kya rakhta wo ghar aabaad kya karta
rihai zulm se us ke mayassar aur mumkin thi
magar main ne yahi socha wo mere baad kya karta
