apne hi sar se jo suraj ka guzar mange hai

apne hī sar se jo sūraj kā guzar māñge hai

Dūbtī shaam vahī ḳhvāb-e-sahar māñge hai

ab to ḳhud se bhī nahīñ koī ta'alluq mujh ko

kyoñ ġham-e-‘ishq tirī rāhguzar māñge hai

zulm kī had hai ki ham be-sar-o-sāmānoñ se

har nafas ziist nayā raḳht-e-safar māñge hai

chashm-e-bezār meñ añgḌā.iyāñ letī hai thakan

koī phir kū-e-'alāmat meñ sahar māñge hai

mas.ale vo haiñ ki ai 'umr-e-gurezāñ tujh se

hasrat-e-dīda-e-tar ‘umr-e-ḳhizar māñge hai

apne hi sar se jo suraj ka guzar mange hai

Dubti sham wahi KHwab-e-sahar mange hai

ab to KHud se bhi nahin koi ta'alluq mujh ko

kyon gham-e-‘ishq teri rahguzar mange hai

zulm ki had hai ki hum be-sar-o-samanon se

har nafas zist naya raKHt-e-safar mange hai

chashm-e-bezar mein angDaiyan leti hai thakan

koi phir ku-e-'alamat mein sahar mange hai

masale wo hain ki ai 'umr-e-gurezan tujh se

hasrat-e-dida-e-tar ‘umr-e-KHizar mange hai
