آؤ بے پردہ تمہیں جلوۂ پنہاں کی قسم

Aao be-parda tumhein jalwa-e-pinhaan ki qasamHum na chheRenge hamein zulf-e-pareshan ki qasam

Chak-e-damaan ki qasam chak-e-garebaan ki qasamHansne wale tujhe is haal-e-pareshan ki qasam

Mere armaan se waqif nahin sharmayenge aapAap kyun khate hain naahaq mere armaan ki qasam

Neend aaye na kabhi tujh se bichhaR kar zaalimApni aankhon ki qasam tere shabistan ki qasam

Lab-e-jaanan pe fida aariz-e-jaanan ke nisaarSham-e-rangeen ki qasam subh-e-darakhshan ki qasam

Aaj tak subh-e-watan yaad hai hum ko 'Akhtar'Dard-e-hijraan ki qasam sham-e-ghareeban ki qasam
