bahut mushkil hai pas-e-lazzat-e-dard-e-jigar karna

bahut mushkil hai pās-e-lazzat-e-dard-e-jigar karnā

kisī se ishq karnā aur vo bhī umar bhar karnā

sar-e-mahfil tirā vo pursish-e-zaḳhm-e-jigar karnā

mirī jānib ba-mushkil ik nazar karnā magar karnā

musallam ho ga.ī hai be-iḳhtiyārī jazb-e-bātin kī

mohabbat us se karnā jis se nafrat is qadar karnā

yahāñ bāl-o-parī bhī ek sūrat hai asīrī kī

asīr-e-bāl-o-par ho kar ġhurūr-e-bāl-o-par karnā

tujhe haq hai ki tū parda uThā.e rū-e-raushan se

ki tere husn ko aatā hai tahzīb-e-nazar karnā

baḌhā kar haath taare āsmāñ se kaun toḌegā

'jamīl' ik kār-e-nā-mumkin hai taqlīd-e-qamar karnā

bahut mushkil hai pas-e-lazzat-e-dard-e-jigar karna

kisi se ishq karna aur wo bhi umar bhar karna

sar-e-mahfil tera wo pursish-e-zaKHm-e-jigar karna

meri jaanib ba-mushkil ek nazar karna magar karna

musallam ho gai hai be-iKHtiyari jazb-e-baatin ki

mohabbat us se karna jis se nafrat is qadar karna

yahan baal-o-pari bhi ek surat hai asiri ki

asir-e-baal-o-par ho kar ghurur-e-baal-o-par karna

tujhe haq hai ki tu parda uThae ru-e-raushan se

ki tere husn ko aata hai tahzib-e-nazar karna

baDha kar hath tare aasman se kaun toDega

'jamil' ek kar-e-na-mumkin hai taqlid-e-qamar karna
