Jo Tum Ho Do Qadam Aage To Hum Hain Do Qadam Pichhe

jo tum ho do qadam aage to hum hain do qadam pichhe

ye farq-e-do-qadam kya hai na tum aage na hum pichhe

sanam us ke jamali hain sanam us ke KHayali hain

KHuda-sazi tha shughl-e-dair rahta kyun haram pichhe

ye kya insaf hai aadil baDhaya tishnagi pahle

diya teri adalat ne shuur-e-shahad-o-sam pichhe

ye hai tariKH ka darbar kuchh darwesh baiThe hain

khaDe hain qaisar o faghfur o dara-e-ajam pichhe

bulandi shiddat-e-parwaz se banti gai yani

nazar aage thi aur har fasla tha besh o kam pichhe

yahan bhi kar ke ek sajda wahan bhi kar ke ek sajda

musafir baDh gaya chiKHa kiye dair o haram pichhe

gale us se bhi kaTte hain gale is se bhi kaTte hain

rahe kyun 'mazhari' talwar se apna qalam pichhe
