be-tahi yahi hogi ye jahan kahin honge
be-tahī yahī hogī ye jahāñ kahīñ hoñge
sat.h kāTne vaale sat.h-āfrīñ hoñge
āftāb haT jaa.e jhilmilāne vaale hī
āsmān-e-vīrāñ meñ raunaq āfrīñ hoñge
zindagī manāne ko vahm bhī ġhanīmat haiñ
ham bhī vahm hī hoñge vahm agar nahīñ hoñge
ye jatā diyā āḳhir mujh ko mere ajzā ne
apne aap meñ rahiye varna bas hamīñ hoñge
dil mirā mudabbir hai band-o-bast-e-ālam kā
mas.ale kahīñ ke hoñ faisle yahīñ hoñge
mere saath aa.e haiñ mere saath jā.eñge
hoñ jahāñ qadam mere rāste vahīñ hoñge
vaqt kī savārī par jo rukī huī hogī
fāsle karūñgā tai jo kahīñ nahīñ hoñge
rañg-o-nūr partav haiñ jin kī tāb-kārī ke
tīrgī ke vo jalve kitne dil-nashīñ hoñge
sochiye to sahrā hai Dūbiye to dariyā hai
ek din 'muhib' sāhab jis ke tah-nashīñ hoñge
be-tahi yahi hogi ye jahan kahin honge
sath kaTne wale sath-afrin honge
aaftab haT jae jhilmilane wale hi
aasman-e-viran mein raunaq aafrin honge
zindagi manane ko wahm bhi ghanimat hain
hum bhi wahm hi honge wahm agar nahin honge
ye jata diya aaKHir mujh ko mere ajza ne
apne aap mein rahiye warna bas hamin honge
dil mera mudabbir hai band-o-bast-e-alam ka
masale kahin ke hon faisle yahin honge
mere sath aae hain mere sath jaenge
hon jahan qadam mere raste wahin honge
waqt ki sawari par jo ruki hui hogi
fasle karunga tai jo kahin nahin honge
rang-o-nur partaw hain jin ki tab-kari ke
tirgi ke wo jalwe kitne dil-nashin honge
sochiye to sahra hai Dubiye to dariya hai
ek din 'muhib' sahab jis ke tah-nashin honge
