har siina aah hai tire paikaan kaa muntazir — Maulana Mohammad Ali Jauhar

vahi din hai hamaari iid kaa din
jo tiri yaad mein guzartaa hai

daur-e-hayaat aaegaa qaatil qazaa ke baad
hai ibtidaa hamaari tiri intihaa ke baad

qatl-e-husain asl mein marg-e-yazid hai
islaam zinda hotaa hai har karbalaa ke baad

tauhid to ye hai ki khudaa hashr mein kah de
ye banda zamaane se khafaa mere liye hai

na namaaz aati hai mujh ko na vazu aataa hai
sajda kar letaa huun jab saamne tu aataa hai

saari duniyaa ye samajhti hai ki saudaai hai
ab miraa hosh mein aanaa tiri rusvaai hai

jab ki pahlu se yaar uThtaa hai
dard be-ikhtiyaar uThtaa hai

khudaa ke haath mein mat saunp saare kaamon ko
badalte vaqt pe kuchh apnaa ikhtiyaar bhi rakh

thak gayaa hai dil-e-vahshi miraa fariyaad se bhi
ji bahaltaa nahin ai dost tiri yaad se bhi

barseingi aaj rahmatein aamad hai yaar ki
naayaab hain ye ghaDiyaan tire intizaar ki

yaar bhi raah ki divaar samajhte hain mujhe
main samajhtaa thaa mire yaar samajhte hain mujhe

jo ghair the vo isi baat par hamaare hue
ki ham se dost bahut be-khabar hamaare hue
