Meri wafa ka taqaza hai k jaan nisaar karun

Aey watan teri mitti se aisa pyar karun

Maire lahu se teri jo bahaar baki ho

Mera naseeb hai k mein aisa baar baar karun

Khoon dil se jo chaman ko bahaar sonp gya

Aey kaash in mein khud ko shumar karun

Meri dua hai Sohail mein bhi Shaheed kehlaon

Mein koi kaam kabhi aisa yaadgar karun

Col Sohail Abid was laid to rest with full military honour.
