"Aj ka Muslim"

Goongi ho gai aaj kuch Zuban Kehty kehty,
Hichkicha gya main khud ko Muslalman kehty kehty,

ye bat Nahi k muj ko us per yakeen nahi,
Bas dar gya khud ko sahib-e-Imaan kehty kehty,

Tofeq na hui mujhe ek waqt ki Namaj ki,
Aur chup huwa moazzan Aazaan kehty kehty,

kisi kafir ne jo poocha k ye kia he Maheena,
Sharam se Pani huwa main Ramzan kehty kehty,

Mere Kamray main Gard se atti kitaab ka jo Poocha,
Main Garh gya Zameen main Quraan kehty kehty,

Ye sunn k chup sadhli "IQBAL" us ne,
Yoon laga jese ruk gaya ho mujhay heywaan kehty kehty,
