but-shikan ko’ii kahiiN se bhii na aane paaye
hamne kuch but abhii siine meN sajaa rakhe haiN
apnii yaadoN meN basaa rakhe haiN
dil pe ye soch ke path-raao karo diivaanoN
ke jahaaN hamne sanam apne chhupaa rakhe haiN
vahiiN Ghazni ke Khudaa rakhe haiN
but jo TuuTe to kisii tarah banaa leNge unheN
tukRe-tukRe sahii daaman meN uThaa leNge unheN
phir se ujRe hu’e siine meN sajaa leNge unheN
Gar Khudaa TuuTegaa ham to na banaa paayeNge
uske bikhre hu’e tukRe na uThaa paayeNge
tum uThaa lo to uTha lo shaayad
tum banaa lo to banaa lo shaayad
tum banaao to Khudaa jaane banaao kaisaa
apne jaisaa hii banaaya to qayaamat hogii
pyaar hogaa na zamaaneN meN muhabbat hogii
dushmanii hogi, adaavat hogii
hamse uskii na ibaadat hogii
vahshat-e-but-shikanii dekh ke hairaan huuN maiN
but-parastii mera shevaa hai ke insaan huuN maiN
ek na ek but to har ek dil meN chhupaa hotaa hai
uske sau naamoN meN ek naam Khudaa hotaa hai

Ruh ko dharma ke emaan se na band
Aap hi se pehle janaat nahi hai.
