FIKR-O-FUN HAI SALEEM WAHID KA
UN KE ZAUQ-E-SALEEM KA GHAMMAZ
UN KA SARMAYA-E-HAYAT HAI JO
HAI WOH UN KE ZAMEER KI AAWAAZ
AHL-E-DIL KE LIYE HAI WAJH-E-SUKOON
UN KI GHAZLON MEIN HAI JO SOZ-O-GUDAAZ
UN KI FIKR-O-NAZAR HAI ROOH-E-ASR
ROOH PARWR THI ZEHN KI PARWAAZ
UN KE USLOOB-E-NAZM-O-NASR MEIN HAI
NUDRAT-E-FIKR-O-FUN KA NAAZ-O-NIYAAZ
SAATH URDU KE FARSI MEIN BHI
THE WOH ARBAAB-E-ILM MEIN MUMTAAZ
MAIN HOOM MUSLIM SALEEM KA MAMNOON
UN KE FARZAND HAIN JO MAYA-E-NAAZ
DE RAHE HAIN WOH AAJ KAL TARTEEB
UN KE AFKAR KE HAIN JO AIJAAZ
DILKASH-O-DILNAWAAZ HAI BARQI
UN KE ''TAAR-E-NAFAS'' KI HAR AAWAAZ
(Note: Tar-e-Nafas is the title of a poem by Dr. Saleem Wahid Saleem)
