Alvida keh gaye' humare' buzurg

Alvida keh gaye' humare' buzurg,
Kisi anjaane' jahaan mein apna ashiana bana liya.

Hum unke' hamesha bichar jaane' ke' ghum mein doobe' hue' hain,
Khuda ke' paigham ne' unhe' humse' juda kar diya.

Wasiyat mein humein kuch dhan daulat aur jayedaad zaroor mile',
Magar unke' anmol nasihat aur woh mashware jo wasiyat mein nahi the',
Apne' apne' khyalon se' humein kitna amir bana diya.

Kal hum bhi uss anjaane jahaan mein chale' jaayeinge',
Humare' aziz aur bachche' shayad isi ghum mein doob jayeinge',
Magar kya sirf hum peeche' dhan daulat aur jayedaad chhor jayeinge'?
Iska faisla hum mein se' kitnon ne kar liya?
