Yeh hath salamat hain jab tak , is khoon mein hararat ha jab tak
is dil mein sadaqat ha jab tak, is nutq mein taqat ha jab tak
in tooq-o-salasil ko hum tum sikhlayeein gay shorish-i-barbat-o-nay
woh shorish jis key aagey zaboon hangama-i-tabl-ey qaser-o-kay
azaad hain apney fikar-o-amal bherpoor khazena himmat ka
ik umer ha apni her sahat ,imroz ha apna her ferda
yeh sham-o-seher yeh shams-o-qamar ,yeh akhtar-o-kokab apney hain
yeh looh-o-qalam , yeh tabal-o-alam , yeh maal-o-hasham sab apney hain
