Teer e nazar ka hai kaho ‘sahil’ nishana kyon
Teer e nazar ka hai kaho ‘sahil’ nishana kyon
Chaman qareeb samjhaye koi hai veerana kyon
Kya theka liya tha waqt ne koi yeh to batla do
Ke maare qismat mujhe hi, varna yeh satana kyon
Sab se na ho waasta to muzaiqa nahin koi
Magar aaj khud se insan hai kaho yun anjaana kyon
Yaro aaj nabard hi nabard hai aap jidhar dekhiye
Unsiyat ko bhala kya hua gurezaan dostana kyon
Irtiqa ki baat na chalegi ab na mah o anjum ki
Ai ahl e siyasat, ab dhund lo tum aur bahana koi
Dhundta hai taaron ki tarah zulmat tu insan kyon
Aaftaab ke hotey huay nahin hai tera timtimana kyon
