baḌe sīdhe-sādhe baḌe bhole-bhāle

koī dekhe is vaqt chehrā tumhārā

baDe sidhe-sadhe baDe bhole-bhaale

koi dekhe is waqt chehra tumhaara

is liye kahte the dekhā muñh lagāne kā maza

ā.īna ab aap kā madd-e-muqābil ho gayā

is liye kahte the dekha munh lagane ka maza

aaina ab aap ka madd-e-muqabil ho gaya

kis tarah javānī meñ chalūñ raah pe nāseh

ye umr hī aisī hai sujhā.ī nahīñ detā

kis tarah jawani mein chalun rah pe naseh

ye umr hi aisi hai sujhai nahin deta

mire karīm ināyat se terī kyā na milā

gunāh kar ke bhī be-muzad āb-o-dāna milā

mere karim inayat se teri kya na mila

gunah kar ke bhi be-muzad aab-o-dana mila

tum kahāñ vasl kahāñ vasl kī ummīd kahāñ

dil ke bahkāne ko ik baat banā rakhī hai

tum kahan wasl kahan wasl ki ummid kahan

dil ke bahkane ko ek baat bana rakhi hai
