use kyun humne diya dil jo hai be-mehri mein kaamil jise aadat hai jafa ki

use kyuuñ ham ne diyā dil jo hai be-mehrī meñ kāmil jise aadat hai jafā kī

jise chiḌh mehr-o-vafā kī jise aatā nahīñ aanā ġham-o-hasrat kā miTānā jo sitam meñ hai yagāna

jise kahtā hai zamāna but-e-be-mahr-o-daġhā-baz jafā-pesha fusūñ-sāz sitam-ḳhāna-bar-andāz

ġhazab jis kā har ik naaz nazar fitna mizha tiir balā zulf-e-girah-gīr ġham-o-rañj kā baanī qalaq-o-dard

kā mūjib sitam-o-jaur kā ustād jafā-kārī meñ māhir jo sitam-kesh-o-sitam-gar jo sitam-pesha hai

dilbar jise aatī nahīñ ulfat jo samajhtā nahīñ chāhat jo tasallī ko na samjhe jo tashaffī ko na

jaane jo kare qaul na puurā kare har kaam adhūrā yahī din-rāt tasavvur hai ki nāhaq

use chāhā jo na aa.e na bulā.e na kabhī paas biThā.e na ruḳh-e-sāf dikhā.e na koī

baat sunā.e na lagī dil kī bujhā.e na kalī dil kī khilā.e na ġham-o-rañj ghaTā.e na rah-o-rasm

baḌhā.e jo kaho kuchh to ḳhafā ho kahe shikve kī zarūrat jo yahī hai to na chāho jo na

chāhoge to kyā hai na nibāhoge to kyā hai bahut itrāo na dil de ke ye kis kaam kā dil

hai ġham-o-andoh kā maarā abhī chāhūñ to maiñ rakh duuñ ise talvoñ se masal kar abhī muñh

dekhte rah jaao ki haiñ un ko huā kyā ki inhoñ ne mirā dil le ke mire haath se khoyā

use kyun hum ne diya dil jo hai be-mehri mein kaamil jise aadat hai jafa ki

jise chiDh mehr-o-wafa ki jise aata nahin aana gham-o-hasrat ka miTana jo sitam mein hai yagana

jise kahta hai zamana but-e-be-mahr-o-dagha-baz jafa-pesha fusun-saz sitam-KHana-bar-andaz

ghazab jis ka har ek naz nazar fitna mizha tir bala zulf-e-girah-gir gham-o-ranj ka bani qalaq-o-dard

ka mujib sitam-o-jaur ka ustad jafa-kari mein mahir jo sitam-kesh-o-sitam-gar jo sitam-pesha hai

dilbar jise aati nahin ulfat jo samajhta nahin chahat jo tasalli ko na samjhe jo tashaffi ko na

jaane jo kare qaul na pura kare har kaam adhura yahi din-raat tasawwur hai ki nahaq

use chaha jo na aae na bulae na kabhi pas biThae na ruKH-e-saf dikhae na koi

baat sunae na lagi dil ki bujhae na kali dil ki khilae na gham-o-ranj ghaTae na rah-o-rasm

baDhae jo kaho kuchh to KHafa ho kahe shikwe ki zarurat jo yahi hai to na chaho jo na

chahoge to kya hai na nibahoge to kya hai bahut itrao na dil de ke ye kis kaam ka dil

hai gham-o-andoh ka mara abhi chahun to main rakh dun ise talwon se masal kar abhi munh

dekhte rah jao ki hain un ko hua kya ki inhon ne mera dil le ke mere hath se khoya
