Dara ke mauj-o-talatum se ham-nashinon ko

Darā ke mauj-o-talātum se ham-nashīnoñ ko

yahī to haiñ jo Duboyā kiye safīnoñ ko

jamāl-e-sub.h diyā rū-e-nau-bahār diyā

mirī nigāh bhī detā ḳhudā hasīnoñ ko

hamārī raah meñ aa.e hazār mai-ḳhāne

bhulā sake na magar hosh ke qarīnoñ ko

kabhī nazar bhī uThā.ī na sū-e-bāda-e-nāb

kabhī chaḌhā ga.e pighlā ke ābgīnoñ ko

yahī jahāñ hai jahannam yahī jahāñ firdaus

batāo ālam-e-bālā ke sair-bīnoñ ko

hue haiñ qāfile zulmat kī vādiyoñ meñ ravāñ

charāġh-e-rāh kiye ḳhūñ-chakāñ jabīnoñ ko

tujhe na maane koī tujh ko is se kyā 'majrūh'

chal apnī raah bhaTakne de nukta-chīnoñ ko

Dara ke mauj-o-talatum se ham-nashinon ko

yahi to hain jo Duboya kiye safinon ko

jamal-e-subh diya ru-e-nau-bahaar diya

meri nigah bhi deta KHuda hasinon ko

hamari rah mein aae hazar mai-KHane

bhula sake na magar hosh ke qarinon ko

kabhi nazar bhi uThai na su-e-baada-e-nab

kabhi chaDha gae pighla ke aabginon ko

yahi jahan hai jahannam yahi jahan firdaus

batao aalam-e-baala ke sair-binon ko

hue hain qafile zulmat ki wadiyon mein rawan

charagh-e-rah kiye KHun-chakan jabinon ko

tujhe na mane koi tujh ko is se kya 'majruh'

chal apni rah bhaTakne de nukta-chinon ko
