aazaadee-e-khayaal kee vust ko dekhie
rah kar zameen pe karate hain baat aasamaan se ham
jeene kee kuchh khushee hai na marane ka koee khauf
aazaad is tarah hue har do-jahaan se ham
gaalib hai dil pe josh o zauq-e-sukhan mire
darja mein kam nahin kisee aatish-zabaan se ham
sattar baras kee umr javaanon se badh ke josh
is raaz ko chhupae hain ahal-e-jahaan se ham
ahabaab nukta-sanj sukhan-daan chale gae
ahaqar hain ab lage faqat hindostaan se ham
