election ki kar-farmai
mizāj-e-muqtadir majbūr kyoñ hai ham samajhte haiñ
bazāhir dil se naḳhvat duur kyoñ hai ham samajhte haiñ
karam kyoñ ho rahā hai ab nigāh-e-fitna-sāmāñ kā
tirī har baat ab manzūr kyoñ hai ham samajhte haiñ
jo kal kuchh aur the vo ab haiñ āzādī-pasandoñ meñ
unheñ taslīm ye dastūr kyoñ hai ham samajhte haiñ
vo insāñ jāma-e-kohna meñ jo malbūs rahtā thā
libās-e-nau meñ ab mastūr kyoñ hai ham samajhte haiñ
vo kyoñ pesh aa rahe haiñ aaj aḳhlāq-o-muravvat se
vo un kī tamkanat kāfūr kyoñ hai ham samajhte haiñ
udāsī chhā rahī hai kis liye 'in'ām' chehroñ par
parīda ruḳh kā rang-o-nūr kyoñ hai ham samajhte haiñ
mizaj-e-muqtadir majbur kyon hai hum samajhte hain
bazahir dil se naKHwat dur kyon hai hum samajhte hain
karam kyon ho raha hai ab nigah-e-fitna-saman ka
teri har baat ab manzur kyon hai hum samajhte hain
jo kal kuchh aur the wo ab hain aazadi-pasandon mein
unhen taslim ye dastur kyon hai hum samajhte hain
wo insan jama-e-kohna mein jo malbus rahta tha
libas-e-nau mein ab mastur kyon hai hum samajhte hain
wo kyon pesh aa rahe hain aaj aKHlaq-o-murawwat se
wo un ki tamkanat kafur kyon hai hum samajhte hain
udasi chha rahi hai kis liye 'in'am' chehron par
parida ruKH ka rang-o-nur kyon hai hum samajhte hain
