    bulandī se kabhī vo āshnā.ī kar nahīñ saktā

    jo tere āstāne gadā.ī kar nahīñ saktā

    zabāñ rakhte hue bhī lab-kushā.ī kar nahīñ saktā

    koī qatra samundar se laḌā.ī kar nahīñ saktā

    jugnū hai faqat rātoñ ke dāman meñ baserā kar

    maiñ sūraj huuñ mujh se āshnā.ī kar nahīñ saktā

    ḳhudī daulat-e-uzmā ḳhudā ne mujh ko baḳhshī hai

    qalandar huuñ maiñ shāhoñ gadā.ī kar nahīñ saktā

    sifat fir.aun tujh meñ hai maiñ muusā haamī huuñ

    kabhī taslīm maiñ terī ḳhudā.ī kar nahīñ saktā

    jo zindāñ meñ aziyyat par aziyyat mujh ko detā hai

    maiñ us zālim se ummīd-e-rihā.ī kar nahīñ saktā

    jo kamtar hai baḌā.ī apnī apne muñh se kartā hai

    magar 'afzal' kabhī apnī baḌā.ī kar nahīñ saktā

    bulandi se kabhi wo aashnai kar nahin sakta

    jo tere aastane ki gadai kar nahin sakta

    zaban rakhte hue bhi lab-kushai kar nahin sakta

    koi qatra samundar se laDai kar nahin sakta

    tu jugnu hai faqat raaton ke daman mein basera kar

    main suraj hun tu mujh se aashnai kar nahin sakta

    KHudi ki daulat-e-uzma KHuda ne mujh ko baKHshi hai

    qalandar hun main shahon ki gadai kar nahin sakta

    sifat firaun ki tujh mein hai main musa ka hami hun

    kabhi taslim main teri KHudai kar nahin sakta

    jo zindan mein aziyyat par aziyyat mujh ko deta hai

    main us zalim se ummid-e-rihai kar nahin sakta

    jo kamtar hai baDai apni apne munh se karta hai

    magar 'afzal' kabhi apni baDai kar nahin sakta
