daraKHt sukh gae ruk gae nadi nale
daraḳht suukh ga.e ruk ga.e nadī naale
ye kis nagar ko ravāna hue haiñ ghar vaale
kahāniyāñ jo sunāte the ahd-e-rafta kī
nishāñ vo gardish-e-ayyām ne miTā Daale
maiñ shahr shahr phirā huuñ isī tamannā meñ
kisī ko apnā kahūñ koī mujh ko apnā le
sadā na de kisī mahtāb ko añdheroñ meñ
lagā na de ye zamāna zabān par taale
koī kiran hai yahāñ to koī kiran hai vahāñ
dil o nigāh ne kis darja rog haiñ paale
hamīñ pe un kī nazar hai hamīñ pe un kā karam
ye aur baat yahāñ aur bhī haiñ dil vaale
kuchh aur tujh pe khuleñgī haqīqateñ 'jālib'
jo ho sake to kisī kā fareb bhī khā le
daraKHt sukh gae ruk gae nadi nale
ye kis nagar ko rawana hue hain ghar wale
kahaniyan jo sunate the ahd-e-rafta ki
nishan wo gardish-e-ayyam ne miTa Dale
main shahr shahr phira hun isi tamanna mein
kisi ko apna kahun koi mujh ko apna le
sada na de kisi mahtab ko andheron mein
laga na de ye zamana zaban par tale
koi kiran hai yahan to koi kiran hai wahan
dil o nigah ne kis darja rog hain pale
hamin pe un ki nazar hai hamin pe un ka karam
ye aur baat yahan aur bhi hain dil wale
kuchh aur tujh pe khulengi haqiqaten 'jalib'
jo ho sake to kisi ka fareb bhi kha le
