    dhuāñ-dhār taqrīr jis ne abhī thī vo aadmī hai

    jo lafzoñ ke pul bāñdhtā hai

    ubharte hue nau-javānoñ ko va.adoñ afyūn de kar

    usī pul pe laatā hai aur ġharq kar ke

    palaT jaatā hai hasb-e-dastūr ārām-gah ko

    ye duniyā to un shola sāmān logoñ ne aapas meñ taqsīm kar

    jo hathiyār shakl meñ ranj-o-ġham Dhālte haiñ

    gola-bārūd ke kār-ḳhānoñ ke mālik haiñ

    phir sanā-ḳhvāñ haiñ un ke

    hamāre liye sirf naare bache haiñ

    san.atī daur ke kaj-kulāhoñ dād-o-dahish rūh-parvar ho jān-levā

    magar zindābād, āfrīñ, marhabā, ke sivā kuchh nahīñ paas apne

    ye sab jāntā hai hamārī shujā.at parvāz kyā hai

    hamārī javāñ-mardī ik sūba-jātī ta.assub se

    firqa-vārī fasādāt se aage kuchh bhī nahīñ hai

    futūhāt-e-askandarī ham ne taḳhtī pe likh kar miTā haiñ kab

    hamāre ba.ad zamīñ ke tale so rahe haiñ

    ajā.ib-gharoñ meñ laTaktī haiñ talvāreñ un

    aur un ke zarrīñ libādoñ ko ghun khā gayā hai

    zira-baktaroñ par clones aa ga.ī hai

    ye sab jāntā hai hamārī tag-o-tāz kyā hai

    hamāre shikam gar hamāre suroñ pe na hote

    aur chehroñ meñ āzā-e-jinsī

    to ham achchhe insān bante

    hamāre gharoñ ke kam o besh sab aqabī darvāze paiham khule haiñ

    hamāre lahū meñ hare laal piile bahut saare parcham khule haiñ

    kahīñ se magar haq āvāz aatī nahīñ hai

    hamārī zabāñ dil sāthī nahīñ hai

    hamāre liye khokhlā lafz-e-jamhūriyat hai, taqārīr haiñ leaderoñ

    hamāre liye roz-nāmoñ ke safhāt haiñ, ishtihārāt haiñ nīm-jinsī

    hamāre liye devtāoñ ke but haiñ, ḳhudā ke farāmīn haiñ aur uqbā

    jo bad-rañg hai haal tarah aur kore laTThe se bharī hai

    hamāre liye sirf roTī jidd-o-johd

    auratoñ ke barhana badan tamannā se aage kahīñ kuchh nahīñ hai

    hamārī ragoñ meñ jo tezāb hai us shiddat kabhī kam na hogī!

    dhuan-dhaar taqrir jis ne abhi ki thi wo aadmi hai

    jo lafzon ke pul bandhta hai

    ubharte hue nau-jawanon ko wadon ki afyun de kar

    usi pul pe lata hai aur gharq kar ke

    palaT jata hai hasb-e-dastur aaram-gah ko

    ye duniya to un shola saman logon ne aapas mein taqsim kar li

    jo hathiyar ki shakl mein ranj-o-gham Dhaalte hain

    ya gola-barud ke kar-KHanon ke malik hain

    ya phir sana-KHwan hain un ke

    hamare liye sirf nare bache hain

    sanati daur ke kaj-kulahon ki dad-o-dahish ruh-parwar ho ya jaan-lewa

    magar zindabaad, aafrin, marhaba, ke siwa kuchh nahin pas apne

    ye sab jaanta hai hamari shujaat ki parwaz kya hai

    hamari jawan-mardi ek suba-jati tassub se

    ya firqa-wari fasadat se aage kuchh bhi nahin hai

    futuhat-e-askandari hum ne taKHti pe likh kar miTa di hain kab ki

    hamare baad zamin ke tale so rahe hain

    ajaib-gharon mein laTakti hain talwaren un ki

    aur un ke zarrin libaadon ko ghun kha gaya hai

    zira-baktaron par clones aa gai hai

    ye sab jaanta hai hamari tag-o-taz kya hai

    hamare shikam gar hamare suron pe na hote

    aur chehron mein aaza-e-jinsi

    to hum achchhe insan bante

    hamare gharon ke kam o besh sab aqabi darwaze paiham khule hain

    hamare lahu mein hare lal pile bahut sare parcham khule hain

    kahin se magar haq ki aawaz aati nahin hai

    hamari zaban dil ki sathi nahin hai

    hamare liye khokhla lafz-e-jamhuriyat hai, taqarir hain leaderon ki

    hamare liye roz-namon ke safhat hain, ishtihaaraat hain nim-jinsi

    hamare liye dewtaon ke but hain, KHuda ke faramin hain aur uqba

    jo bad-rang hai haal ki tarah aur kore laTThe ki bu se bhari hai

    hamare liye sirf roTi ki jidd-o-johd

    auraton ke barhana badan ki tamanna se aage kahin kuchh nahin hai

    hamari ragon mein jo tezab hai us ki shiddat kabhi kam na hogi!
