    ye saañp aaj jo phan uThā.e

    mire rāste meñ khaḌā hai

    paḌā thā qadam chāñd par merā jis din

    usī din ise maar Daalā thā maiñ ne

    ukhāḌe the sab daañt kuchlā thā sar bhī

    maroḌī thī dum toḌ thī kamar bhī

    magar chāñd se jhuk ke dekhā jo maiñ ne

    to dum is hilne lagī thī

    ye kuchh reñgne bhī lagā thā

    ye kuchh reñgtā kuchh ghisaTtā huā

    purāne shivāle jānib chalā

    jahāñ duudh is ko pilāyā gayā

    paḌhe panditoñ ne ka.ī mantar aise

    ye kam-baḳht phir se jilāyā gayā

    shivāle se niklā vo phunkārtā

    rag-e-arz par Dañk mārtā

    baḌhā maiñ ki ik baar phir sar kuchal duuñ

    ise bhārī qadmoñ se apne masal duuñ

    qarīb ek vīrān masjid thii, masjid meñ

    ye chhupā

    jahāñ is ko petrol se ġhusl de kar

    hasīn ek ta.avīz gardan meñ Daalā gayā

    huā jitnā sadiyoñ meñ insāñ buland

    ye kuchh us se ūñchā uchhālā gayā

    uchhal ke ye girjā dahlīz par girā

    jahāñ is ko sone kechul pahnā.ī ga.ī

    salīb ek chāñdī siine pe us ke sajā.ī ga.ī

    diyā jis ne duniyā ko paiġhām-e-amn

    usī ke hayāt-āfrīñ naam par

    use jañg-bāzī sikhā.ī ga.ī

    bamoñ gulū-band gardan meñ Daalā

    aur is dhaj se maidāñ meñ us ko nikālā

    paḌā us dhartī pe saaya

    to dhartī raftār rukne lagī

    añdherā añdherā zamīñ se

    falak tak añdherā

    jabīñ chāñd tāroñ jhukne lagī

    huī jab se science zar mutī.a

    jo thā alam e'tibār uTh gayā

    aur is saañp ko zindagī mil ga.ī

    ise ham ne zahhāk ke bhārī kāñdhe pe dekhā thā ik din

    ye hindū nahīñ hai musalmāñ nahīñ

    ye donoñ maġhz aur ḳhuuñ chāTtā hai

    bane jab ye hindū musalmān insāñ

    usī din ye kam-baḳht mar jā.egā

    ye sanp aaj jo phan uThae

    mere raste mein khaDa hai

    paDa tha qadam chand par mera jis din

    usi din ise mar Dala tha main ne

    ukhaDe the sab dant kuchla tha sar bhi

    maroDi thi dum toD di thi kamar bhi

    magar chand se jhuk ke dekha jo main ne

    to dum is ki hilne lagi thi

    ye kuchh rengne bhi laga tha

    ye kuchh rengta kuchh ghisaTta hua

    purane shiwale ki jaanib chala

    jahan dudh is ko pilaya gaya

    paDhe panditon ne kai mantar aise

    ye kam-baKHt phir se jilaya gaya

    shiwale se nikla wo phunkarta

    rag-e-arz par Dank sa marta

    baDha main ki ek bar phir sar kuchal dun

    ise bhaari qadmon se apne masal dun

    qarib ek viran masjid thi, masjid mein

    ye ja chhupa

    jahan is ko petrol se ghusl de kar

    hasin ek tawiz gardan mein Dala gaya

    hua jitna sadiyon mein insan buland

    ye kuchh us se uncha uchhaala gaya

    uchhal ke ye girja ki dahliz par ja gira

    jahan is ko sone ki kechul pahnai gai

    salib ek chandi ki sine pe us ke sajai gai

    diya jis ne duniya ko paigham-e-amn

    usi ke hayat-afrin nam par

    use jang-bazi sikhai gai

    bamon ka gulu-band gardan mein Dala

    aur is dhaj se maidan mein us ko nikala

    paDa us ka dharti pe saya

    to dharti ki raftar rukne lagi

    andhera andhera zamin se

    falak tak andhera

    jabin chand taron ki jhukne lagi

    hui jab se science zar ki mutia

    jo tha alam ka e'tibar uTh gaya

    aur is sanp ko zindagi mil gai

    ise hum ne zahhak ke bhaari kandhe pe dekha tha ek din

    ye hindu nahin hai musalman nahin

    ye donon ka maghz aur KHun chaTta hai

    bane jab ye hindu musalman insan

    usi din ye kam-baKHt mar jaega
