dard-e-dil ki unhen KHabar na hui

dard-e-dil kī unheñ ḳhabar na huī

koī tadbīr kārgar na huī

koshisheñ ham ne kiiñ hazār magar

ishq meñ ek mo'tabar na huī

kar chuke ham ko be-gunāh shahīd

aap kī aañkh phir bhī tar na huī

nā-rasā āh-e-āshiqāñ vo kahāñ

duur un se jo be-asar na huī

aa.ī bujhne ko apnī sham-e-hayāt

shab-e-ġham kī magar sahar na huī

shab the ham garm-e-nāla-hā-e-firāq

sub.h ik āh-e-sard sar na huī

tum se kyūñkar vo chhup sake 'hasrat'

nigah-e-shauq parda dar na huī

dard-e-dil ki unhen KHabar na hui

koi tadbir kargar na hui

koshishen hum ne kin hazar magar

ishq mein ek mo'tabar na hui

kar chuke hum ko be-gunah shahid

aap ki aankh phir bhi tar na hui

na-rasa aah-e-ashiqan wo kahan

dur un se jo be-asar na hui

aai bujhne ko apni sham-e-hayat

shab-e-gham ki magar sahar na hui

shab the hum garm-e-nala-ha-e-firaq

subh ek aah-e-sard sar na hui

tum se kyunkar wo chhup sake 'hasrat'

nigah-e-shauq parda dar na hui
