Today was Abi's birthday.

In 1949, just a couple of years after Pakistan was born,
Abi recited this Nazm at a Mushaerah celebrating
our independence.

Here is the complete original in his handwriting.

For those who cannot read Urdu,
I have recited just the lateefa for them
which can be heard on Pakistaniat.com here.
