kamal-e-be-KHabari ko KHabar samajhte hain

kamāl-e-be-ḳhabarī ko ḳhabar samajhte haiñ

tirī nigāh ko jo mo'tabar samajhte haiñ

faroġh-e-tūr kī yuuñ to hazār tāvīleñ

ham ik charāġh-e-sar-e-rahguzar samajhte haiñ

lab-e-nigār ko zahmat na do ḳhudā ke liye

ham ahl-e-shauq zabān-e-nazar samajhte haiñ

janāb-e-shaiḳh samajhte haiñ ḳhuub rindoñ ko

janāb-e-shaiḳh ko ham bhī magar samajhte haiñ

vo ḳhaak samjheñge rāz-e-gul-o-saman 'tābāñ'

jo rañg-o-bū ko fareb-e-nazar samajhte haiñ

kamal-e-be-KHabari ko KHabar samajhte hain

teri nigah ko jo mo'tabar samajhte hain

farogh-e-tur ki yun to hazar tawilen

hum ek charagh-e-sar-e-rahguzar samajhte hain

lab-e-nigar ko zahmat na do KHuda ke liye

hum ahl-e-shauq zaban-e-nazar samajhte hain

janab-e-shaiKH samajhte hain KHub rindon ko

janab-e-shaiKH ko hum bhi magar samajhte hain

wo KHak samjhenge raaz-e-gul-o-saman 'taban'

jo rang-o-bu ko fareb-e-nazar samajhte hain
