ek sawal
mere ābā-o-ajdād ne hurmat-e-ādmī ke liye
tā-abad raushnī ke liye
kalma-e-haq kahā
maqtaloñ qaid-ḳhānoñ salīboñ meñ bahtā lahū un ke hone kā ailān kartā rahā
vo lahū hurmat-e-ādmī kī zamānat banā
tā-abad raushnī kī alāmat banā
aur maiñ pā-barahna sar-e-kūcha-e-ehtiyāj
rizq kī maslahat kā asiir aadmī
sochtā rah gayā
jism meñ mere un kā lahū hai to phir ye lahū boltā kyuuñ nahīñ?
mere aaba-o-ajdad ne hurmat-e-admi ke liye
ta-abad raushni ke liye
kalma-e-haq kaha
maqtalon qaid-KHanon salibon mein bahta lahu un ke hone ka ailan karta raha
wo lahu hurmat-e-admi ki zamanat bana
ta-abad raushni ki alamat bana
aur main pa-barahna sar-e-kucha-e-ehtiyaj
rizq ki maslahat ka asir aadmi
sochta rah gaya
jism mein mere un ka lahu hai to phir ye lahu bolta kyun nahin?
