Jabr-e-shahi Ka Sirf Baghawat Ilaj Hai

jabr-e-shahi ka sirf baghawat ilaj hai

apna azal se ek husaini mizaj hai

aage to zahr-e-ishq mein sab zahr the ghule

ab shairi ki jaan rag-e-ehtijaj hai

aali nazar ke sher pe tikhe mubahise

be-nur aalimon ka maraz la-ilaj hai

har aan hain dimagh mein afkar-e-shab-nawaz

is gham ki saltanat mein bas ek dil siraj hai

kya di hai lab-kushai ki qimat use bhi dekh

is daftar-e-nawa mein sabhi indiraj hai

is sondhi miTTiyon ne diya rang o zaiqa

hiron se baDh ke aab mein mulki anaj hai

'iqbaal' ki nawa se musharraf hai go 'naim'

urdu ke sar pe 'mir' ki ghazlon ka taj hai
