ashkoñ ko ārzū-e-rihā.ī hai roiye

āñkhoñ kī ab isī meñ bhalā.ī hai roiye

ashkon ko aarzu-e-rihai hai roiye

aankhon ki ab isi mein bhalai hai roiye

hālat-e-hāl se begāna banā rakkhā hai

ḳhud ko maazī kā nihāñ-ḳhāna banā rakkhā hai

haalat-e-haal se begana bana rakkha hai

KHud ko mazi ka nihan-KHana bana rakkha hai

ham haiñ asīr-e-zabt ijāzat nahīñ hameñ

ro pā rahe haiñ aap badhā.ī hai roiye

hum hain asir-e-zabt ijazat nahin hamein

ro pa rahe hain aap badhai hai roiye

ḳhamoshī kah rahī hai ab ye do-ābā ravāñ hogā

havā chup ho to bārish ke shadīd āsār hote haiñ

KHamoshi kah rahi hai ab ye do-aba rawan hoga

hawa chup ho to barish ke shadid aasar hote hain

mere kamre meñ udāsī hai qayāmat kī magar

ek tasvīr purānī sī hañsā kartī hai

mere kamre mein udasi hai qayamat ki magar

ek taswir purani si hansa karti hai
