āsān kis qadar hai samajh lo mirā pata

bastī ke baad pahlā jo vīrāna aa.egā

aasan kis qadar hai samajh lo mera pata

basti ke baad pahla jo virana aaega

aap kyā aa.e ki ruḳhsat sab andhere ho ga.e

is qadar ghar meñ kabhī bhī raushnī dekhī na thī

aap kya aae ki ruKHsat sab andhere ho gae

is qadar ghar mein kabhi bhi raushni dekhi na thi

ghar meñ jo ik charāġh thā tum ne use bujhā diyā

koī kabhī charāġh ham ghar meñ na phir jalā sake

ghar mein jo ek charagh tha tum ne use bujha diya

koi kabhi charagh hum ghar mein na phir jala sake

pattharo aaj mire sar pe baraste kyuuñ ho

maiñ ne tum ko bhī kabhī apnā ḳhudā rakkhā hai

pattharo aaj mere sar pe baraste kyun ho

main ne tum ko bhi kabhi apna KHuda rakkha hai

jis ne bhī mujhe dekhā hai patthar se navāzā

vo kaun haiñ phūloñ ke jinheñ haar mile haiñ

jis ne bhi mujhe dekha hai patthar se nawaza

wo kaun hain phulon ke jinhen haar mile hain

vo jo kahtā thā ki 'nāsir' ke liye jiitā huuñ

us kā kyā jāniye kyā haal huā mere baad

wo jo kahta tha ki 'nasir' ke liye jita hun

us ka kya jaaniye kya haal hua mere baad

tumhāre baad ujāle bhī ho ga.e ruḳhsat

hamāre shahr kā manzar bhī gaañv jaisā hai

tumhaare baad ujale bhi ho gae ruKHsat

hamare shahr ka manzar bhi ganw jaisa hai

vo mujhe chhoḌ ke ik shaam ga.e the 'nāsir'

zindagī apnī usī shaam se aage na baḌhī

wo mujhe chhoD ke ek sham gae the 'nasir'

zindagi apni usi sham se aage na baDhi

ye dard hai hamdam usī zālim kī nishānī

de mujh ko davā aisī ki ārām na aa.e

ye dard hai hamdam usi zalim ki nishani

de mujh ko dawa aisi ki aaram na aae

aap kyā aa.e ki raushan sab añdhere ho ga.e

is qadar ghar meñ kabhī bhī raushnī dekhī na thī

aap kya aae ki raushan sab andhere ho gae

is qadar ghar mein kabhi bhi raushni dekhi na thi

mai-kashī gardish-e-ayyām se aage na baḌhī

merī madhoshī mire jaam se aage na baḌhī

mai-kashi gardish-e-ayyam se aage na baDhi

meri madhoshi mere jam se aage na baDhi

us ke dil par bhī kaḌī ishq meñ guzrī hogī

naam jis ne bhī mohabbat kā sazā rakkhā hai

us ke dil par bhi kaDi ishq mein guzri hogi

nam jis ne bhi mohabbat ka saza rakkha hai

ye tamāshā bhī ajab hai un ke uTh jaane ke baad

maiñ ne din meñ is se pahle tīrgī dekhī na thī

ye tamasha bhi ajab hai un ke uTh jaane ke baad

main ne din mein is se pahle tirgi dekhi na thi

jab se tū ne mujhe dīvāna banā rakkhā hai

sañg har shaḳhs ne hāthoñ meñ uThā rakkhā hai

jab se tu ne mujhe diwana bana rakkha hai

sang har shaKHs ne hathon mein uTha rakkha hai

do ghaḌī dard ne āñkhoñ meñ bhī rahne na diyā

ham to samjhe the baneñge ye sahāre aañsū

do ghaDi dard ne aankhon mein bhi rahne na diya

hum to samjhe the banenge ye sahaare aansu
