uTho hayāt pe ḳhanjar kī dhaar guzrī hai
lahū kī būñdeñ Tapaktī haiñ zaḳhmī rūhoñ se
siyāh raushnī meñ aur jaag uThī vahshat
lahū meñ ghul ga.ī talḳhī diloñ pe naqsh bane
ye saañs siine meñ ghaTtī huī mī lagtī hai
ye roz-o-shab kā tafakkur ye saarī umr kā ghun
hayāt uub ga.ī adl ke añdheroñ se
kahāñ tak adl kī zanjīr khīñchte jaa.eñ
sadā.eñ lauTtī haiñ bām-o-dar se Takrā kar
inān-e-mulk paḌī hai hinā.ī hāthoñ meñ
koī to haq kī kiran phūTe zulm kī shab meñ
nigāh-e-amn-o-amāñ tishna-bār hai ab tak
uTho hayat pe KHanjar ki dhaar guzri hai
lahu ki bunden Tapakti hain zaKHmi ruhon se
siyah raushni mein aur jag uThi wahshat
lahu mein ghul gai talKHi dilon pe naqsh bane
ye sans sine mein ghaTti hui mi lagti hai
ye roz-o-shab ka tafakkur ye sari umr ka ghun
hayat ub gai adl ke andheron se
kahan tak adl ki zanjir khinchte jaen
sadaen lauTti hain baam-o-dar se Takra kar
inan-e-mulk paDi hai hinai hathon mein
koi to haq ki kiran phuTe zulm ki shab mein
nigah-e-amn-o-aman tishna-bar hai ab tak
