ai dida-e-giryan kya kahiye is pyar-bhare afsane ko

ai dīda-e-giryāñ kyā kahiye is pyār-bhare afsāne ko

ik sham.a jalī bujhne ke liye ik phuul khilā murjhāne ko

maiñ apne pyaar kā diip liye āfāq meñ har-sū ghuum gayā

tum duur kahīñ jā pahuñche the ākāsh pe jī bahlāne ko

vo phuul se lamhe bhārī haiñ ab yaad ke nāzuk shānoñ par

jo pyaar se tum ne sauñpe the āġhāz meñ ik dīvāne ko

ik saath fanā ho jaane se ik jashn to barpā hotā hai

yuuñ tanhā jalnā Thiik nahīñ samjhā.e koī parvāne ko

maiñ raat kā bhed to kholūñgā jab niiñd na mujh ko aa.egī

kyuuñ chāñd sitāre aate haiñ har raat mujhe samjhāne ko

ai dida-e-giryan kya kahiye is pyar-bhare afsane ko

ek shama jali bujhne ke liye ek phul khila murjhane ko

main apne pyar ka dip liye aafaq mein har-su ghum gaya

tum dur kahin ja pahunche the aakash pe ji bahlane ko

wo phul se lamhe bhaari hain ab yaad ke nazuk shanon par

jo pyar se tum ne saunpe the aaghaz mein ek diwane ko

ek sath fana ho jaane se ek jashn to barpa hota hai

yun tanha jalna Thik nahin samjhae koi parwane ko

main raat ka bhed to kholunga jab nind na mujh ko aaegi

kyun chand sitare aate hain har raat mujhe samjhane ko
