( Read Explanation here - نظم کی تشریح یہاں پڑھیں)

Mazool Shahenshah
A DEPOSED MONARCH

Ho Mubarik Uss Shahenshah-e-Nikofar Jaam Ko

Jis Ki Qurbani Se Asrar-e-Mulookiyat Hain Faash

Good luck to that King, cashiered so gracefully, whose 

Dismissal shows how a ruling Power behaves!

'Shah' Hai Bartanvi Mandar Mein Ek Mitti Ka But

Jis Ko Kar Sakte Hain, Jab Chahain Poojari Paash Paash

In Britain’s fane the King is only a plaster 

Image its worshippers smash whenever they choose; 

Hai Ye Mushk Amaiz Afyoon Hum Ghulamon Ke Liye

Sahir-e-Ungleen ! Mara Khawaja'ay Digar Taraash

Its opiate incense is for us, the slaves—

Come, English swindler, bring out our new master!
