terī sūrat se kisī nahīñ miltī sūrat

ham jahāñ meñ tirī tasvīr liye phirte haiñ

teri surat se kisi ki nahin milti surat

hum jahan mein teri taswir liye phirte hain

siyah-baḳhtī meñ kab koī kisī saath detā hai

ki tārīkī meñ saayā bhī judā rahtā hai insāñ se

siyah-baKHti mein kab koi kisi ka sath deta hai

ki tariki mein saya bhi juda rahta hai insan se

aane meñ sadā der lagāte rahe tum

jaate rahe ham jaan se aate rahe tum

Delay in arriving always managed to contrive

this world I was leaving, yet you didn't arrive

aane mein sada der lagate hi rahe tum

jate rahe hum jaan se aate hi rahe tum

Delay in arriving always managed to contrive

this world I was leaving, yet you didn't arrive

nādāñ koī duniyā meñ nahīñ tum se ziyāda

mashuqon se ummid-e-wafa rakhte ho 'nasiKH'

nadan koi duniya mein nahin tum se ziyaada

tamām umr yuuñ ho ga.ī basar apnī

shab-e-firāq ga.ī roz-e-intizār aayā

tamam umr yun hi ho gai basar apni

shab-e-firaq gai roz-e-intizar aaya

lete lete karvaTeñ tujh bin jo ghabrātā huuñ maiñ

naam le le kar tirā rātoñ ko chillātā huuñ maiñ

lete lete karwaTen tujh bin jo ghabraata hun main

nam le le kar tera raaton ko chillata hun main

zulfoñ meñ kiyā qaid na abrū se kiyā qatl

ai ajal ek din āḳhir tujhe aanā hai vale

aaj aatī shab-e-furqat meñ to ehsāñ hotā

ai ajal ek din aaKHir tujhe aana hai wale

ek muddat ke ye kale nag hain pale hue

ab us ka naqsh-e-pa hai aur main hun

kaam auroñ ke jaarī raheñ nākām raheñ ham

ab aap sarkār meñ kyā kaam hamārā

kaam auron ke jari rahen nakaam rahen hum

ab aap ki sarkar mein kya kaam hamara

kartī hai mujhe qatl mire yaar talvār

talvār talvār hai raftār raftār

karti hai mujhe qatl mere yar ki talwar

talwar ki talwar hai raftar ki raftar

muñh aap ko dikhā nahīñ saktā hai sharm se

is vāste hai piiTh idhar āftāb

munh aap ko dikha nahin sakta hai sharm se

is waste hai piTh idhar aaftab ki

dekh kar tujh ko qadam uTh nahīñ saktā apnā
