Ahmad Zahir -Ai Paadushah-e Khobaan

Ai paadushah-e khoobaan daad az gham-e tanhaayee
Del ai to ba jaan aamad waqt ast-u ke baaz aayee

Daayeem gul-e een bostaan shaadaab-u namaimaanad
Daryaab za'aeefaan raa dar waqt-e tawaanaayee
Ai dard-e to-am darmaan dar bestar-e naakaami
Wai yaad-e to-am mo'nes dar gosha-e tanhaayee

Dar daaera-e qesmat ma nuqta-e par kaaraim
Lutf aanche tu andishi, hukm aanche tu farmaayee
