    ek mis sīmīñ badan se kar liyā london meñ aqd

    is ḳhatā par sun rahā huuñ tāna-hā-e-dil-ḳharāsh

    koī kahtā hai ki bas us ne bigāḌī nasl-e-qaum

    koī kahtā hai ki ye hai bad-ḳhisāl-o-bad-ma.āsh

    dil meñ kuchh insāf kartā nahīñ koī buzurg

    ho ke ab majbūr ḳhud is raaz ko kartā huuñ faash

    hotī thī tākīd london jaao añgrezī paḌho

    qaum-e-english se milo sīkho vahī vaz.a-e-tarāsh

    jagmagāte hoTaloñ ke nazzāra karo

    soup o karrī ke maze lo chhoḌ kar yaḳhnī o aash

    līdaroñ se mil ke dekho un ke andāz-o-tarīq

    hall meñ nācho clab meñ jaake khelo un se taash

    bāda-e-tahzīb-e-europe ke chaḌhāo ḳhum ke ḳhum

    asia ke shīsha-e-taqvā ko kar do paash paash

    jab amal is par kiyā pariyoñ saaya ho gayā

    jis se thā dil harārat ko sarāsar inte.āsh

    sāmne thiiñ leadiyāñ zehara-vash o jādū-nazar

    yaañ javānī umañg aur un ko āshiq talāsh

    us chitvan sehar-āgīñ us bāteñ dil-rubā

    chaal us fitna-ḳhez us nigāheñ barq-pāsh

    vo faroġh-e-ātish-e-ruḳh jis ke aage āftāb

    is tarah jaise ki pesh-e-sham.a parvāne laash

    jab ye sūrat thī to mumkin thā ki ik barq-e-balā

    dast-e-sīmīñ ko baḌhātī aur maiñ kahtā dūr-bāsh?

    donoñ jānib thā ragoñ meñ josh-e-ḳhūn-e-fitna-zā

    dil thā āḳhir nahīñ thī barf ye koī qaash

    baar baar aatā hai 'akbar' mere dil meñ ye ḳhayāl

    hazrat-e-sayyad se jākar arz kartā koī kaash

    'darmiyān-e-qa.ar-e-dariyā taḳhta-bandam-karda-ī

    bāz-mī-goī ki dāman-tar makun-hushyār-bāsh

    ek mis simin badan se kar liya london mein aqd

    is KHata par sun raha hun tana-ha-e-dil-KHarash

    koi kahta hai ki bas us ne bigaDi nasl-e-qaum

    koi kahta hai ki ye hai bad-KHisal-o-bad-maash

    dil mein kuchh insaf karta hi nahin koi buzurg

    ho ke ab majbur KHud is raaz ko karta hun fash

    hoti thi takid london jao angrezi paDho

    qaum-e-english se milo sikho wahi waza-e-tarash

    jagmagate hoTalon ka ja ke nazzara karo

    soup o karri ke maze lo chhoD kar yaKHni o aash

    lidaron se mil ke dekho un ke andaz-o-tariq

    hall mein nacho clab mein jake khelo un se tash

    baada-e-tahzib-e-europe ke chaDhao KHum ke KHum

    asia ke shisha-e-taqwa ko kar do pash pash

    jab amal is par kiya pariyon ka saya ho gaya

    jis se tha dil ki hararat ko sarasar inteash

    samne thin leadiyan zehara-wash o jadu-nazar

    yan jawani ki umang aur un ko aashiq ki talash

    us ki chitwan sehar-agin us ki baaten dil-ruba

    chaal us ki fitna-KHez us ki nigahen barq-pash

    wo farogh-e-atish-e-ruKH jis ke aage aaftab

    is tarah jaise ki pesh-e-shama parwane ki lash

    jab ye surat thi to mumkin tha ki ek barq-e-bala

    dast-e-simin ko baDhati aur main kahta dur-bash?

    donon jaanib tha ragon mein josh-e-KHun-e-fitna-za

    dil hi tha aaKHir nahin thi barf ki ye koi qash

    bar bar aata hai 'akbar' mere dil mein ye KHayal

    hazrat-e-sayyad se jakar arz karta koi kash

    'darmiyan-e-qar-e-dariya taKHta-bandam-karda-i

    baz-mi-goi ki daman-tar makun-hushyar-bash
