guloñ meñ rañg bhare bād-e-nau-bahār chale
chale bhī aao ki gulshan kā kārobār chale
gulon mein rang bhare baad-e-nau-bahaar chale
chale bhi aao ki gulshan ka karobar chale

gulshan kī faqat phūloñ se nahīñ kāñToñ se bhī zīnat hotī hai
jiine ke liye is duniyā meñ ġham kī bhī zarūrat hotī hai
gulshan ki faqat phulon se nahin kanTon se bhi zinat hoti hai
jine ke liye is duniya mein gham ki bhi zarurat hoti hai
maiñ ne dekhā hai bahāroñ meñ chaman ko jalte
hai koī ḳhvāb kī tābīr batāne vaalā
main ne dekha hai bahaaron mein chaman ko jalte
hai koi KHwab ki tabir batane wala

vahī gulshan hai lekin vaqt kī parvāz to dekho
koī taa.ir nahīñ pichhle baras ke āshiyānoñ meñ
wahi gulshan hai lekin waqt ki parwaz to dekho
koi tair nahin pichhle baras ke aashiyanon mein
ham ko is kī kyā ḳhabar gulshan kā gulshan jal gayā
ham to apnā sirf apnā āshiyāñ dekhā kiye
hum ko is ki kya KHabar gulshan ka gulshan jal gaya
hum to apna sirf apna aashiyan dekha kiye
kyā isī vāste sīñchā thā lahū se apne
jab sañvar jaa.e chaman aag lagā dī jaa.e
kya isi waste sincha tha lahu se apne
jab sanwar jae chaman aag laga di jae
maiñ us gulshan kā bulbul huuñ bahār aane nahīñ paatī
ki sayyād aan kar merā gulistāñ mol lete haiñ
main us gulshan ka bulbul hun bahaar aane nahin pati
ki sayyaad aan kar mera gulistan mol lete hain
gulshan meñ na ham hoñge to phir sog hamārā
gul-pairahan o ġhuncha-dahan karte raheñge
gulshan mein na hum honge to phir sog hamara
gul-pairahan o ghuncha-dahan karte rahenge
