“Faqr ke hain mojzaat taaj o sareer o sipah

Faqr ke hain mojzaat taaj o sareer o sipah
Faqr hai meeroon ka meer, faqr hai shahoon ka shah

“Ilm ka maqsad hai paaki aqal o khirad
Faqr ka maqsad hai iffat e qalb o nigah”

“Ilm faqeeh o hakeem, faqr Maseeh o Kaleem
Ilm hai joya-e-raah, faqr hai dana-e-raah”

“Faqr maqam-e-nazar, ilm maqam-e-khabar
Faqr masti sawaab, ilm mein masti gunaah”

“Ilm ka maujood aur, faqr ka maujood aur
Ash-hadu an la ilah, ash-hadu an la ilah”

“Charhti hai jab faqr ki saan pe tegh-e-khudi
Ek sipahi ki zarb karti hai kaar-e-sipah”

“Dil agar is khaak mein zinda o bedaar ho
Teri nigah tod de aaeena-e-mehr o maah”
