"پښتونخوا"
په بڼونو کښې شڼرېږي شين طوطيان
شنه سيندونه يې په سپين مېدان روان
سبزهزار يې په خورو مېرو خواره دي
خط و خال په کشاده مخ د جانان
اب هوا يې معطره مشک عنبر دي
دم درخال پکښې رغېږي پاګلان
په خوبۍ دا هسې پټه خزانه ده
تور تور غرونه تور دېوان يې دي پاسبان
پهء وجود د هندوستان پروت لکه سر
پهء نقشه د ازمري د سر په شان
دا وطن دَ پښتنو کشمير نظير دے
پهء مېوه پهء خوراکه کښې فراوان
چې نېستۍ پکښې هستي نهء ده موندلې
شادماني، راحت ولاړ دے پهء استان
کهء لېمهء مې د وطن پهء ګرد تازه شي
تر نظره به مې کم شي ټول جهان
کهء يې مهر او وفا و ته نظر کړې
دَ محمود، اياز مثال شي راعيان
کهء شاعر يې شاعري کړله اغازه
د کلام جنډا به اودرئ پهء ايران
حقيقت د تصوف پهء لزت موړ کړي
دا حافظ دے دَ شيراز عبدالرحمان
کهء مې مشر دَ حجرې تقرير شروع کړي
دَ ازهر نه به خلق پاڅئ ملايان
کهء يو ځل مو شوه صنعت، حرفت ته مخه
کهء مې توره دَ غېرت چرې پهء لاس کړه
بنګاله به دې يو دم وي بې نشان
مرتبه کهء مې د علم و هنر ګورے
دا جمال جمال يورپ کړلو حېران
چې اوبه مې د جيندي صافې تر خوله شي
ژوند تازه شي خيال مې شي ګوهر افشان
د وطن د سيالو جونو نه به زار کړم
فېشني خوشرنګ خوبان د انګلستان
د سيالانو د غېرته به يې غواړم
پهء کم اصلو مې بایءللے نام نشان
چې اثر د پښتو نهء لري پهء تن کښې
بې خوشبو يو لباسي ګُل دبوستان
نهء ريا او نهء فرېب يو صاف ګفتار
چې کمال د پښتو ژبې شي عيان
پهء وسعت کښې د کونې مطلب پوره شو
سمندر په کوزه بند حکمت حېران
يا سياهي زما د بخت د قلم تم شوه
يا افغان سره فعال سر و سامان
ورور، تربور دې ابتداء د خصومت شوه
ته د خپل وجود پهء اور شولې سوزان
کهء دې تېر عقل راستونے کړو پهء سر بيا
کهء فساد، عناد دې بند کړو پهء زندان
د جهان پهء مخ به نمر غوندې څرګند شې
د باطن د پاره تندر د اسمان
کاش کهء ژوند کښې دې نسيم ڼداره وکړي
زما تلے جاه، جلال، دورِدوران
