bikhar jaenge hum kya jab tamasha KHatm hoga

bikhar jā.eñge ham kyā jab tamāshā ḳhatm hogā

mire ma.abūd āḳhir kab tamāshā ḳhatm hogā

charāġh-e-hujra-e-darvesh kī bujhtī huī lau

havā se kah ga.ī hai ab tamāshā ḳhatm hogā

kahānī meñ na.e kirdār shāmil ho ga.e haiñ

nahīñ ma.alūm ab kis Dhab tamāshā ḳhatm hogā

kahānī aap uljhī hai ki uljhā.ī ga.ī hai

ye uqda tab khulegā jab tamāshā ḳhatm hogā

zamīñ jab adl se bhar jā.egī nūrun-alā-nūr

ba-nām-e-maslak-o-maz.hab tamāshā ḳhatm hogā

ye sab kaTh-putliyāñ raqsāñ raheñgī raat kī raat

sahar se pahle pahle sab tamāshā ḳhatm hogā

tamāshā karne vāloñ ko ḳhabar dī jā chukī hai

ki parda kab giregā kab tamāshā ḳhatm hogā

dil-e-nā-mutma.in aisā bhī kyā māyūs rahnā

jo ḳhalq uTThī to sab kartab tamāshā ḳhatm hogā

bikhar jaenge hum kya jab tamasha KHatm hoga

mere mabud aaKHir kab tamasha KHatm hoga

charagh-e-hujra-e-darwesh ki bujhti hui lau

hawa se kah gai hai ab tamasha KHatm hoga

kahani mein nae kirdar shamil ho gae hain

nahin malum ab kis Dhab tamasha KHatm hoga

kahani aap uljhi hai ki uljhai gai hai

ye uqda tab khulega jab tamasha KHatm hoga

zamin jab adl se bhar jaegi nurun-ala-nur

ba-nam-e-maslak-o-mazhab tamasha KHatm hoga

ye sab kaTh-putliyan raqsan rahengi raat ki raat

sahar se pahle pahle sab tamasha KHatm hoga

tamasha karne walon ko KHabar di ja chuki hai

ki parda kab girega kab tamasha KHatm hoga

dil-e-na-mutmain aisa bhi kya mayus rahna

jo KHalq uTThi to sab kartab tamasha KHatm hoga
