dars-e-aram mere zauq-e-safar ne na diya
dars-e-ārām mere zauq-e-safar ne na diyā
mujh ko manzil pe bhī zālim ne Thaharne na diyā
raqs kartī rahī tūfān meñ kashtī merī
merī himmat ne mujhe paar utarne na diyā
zindagī maut se bad-tar thī par ai va.ada-e-dost
lazzat-e-kashmakash-e-shauq ne marne na diyā
multafit kal nazar aatī thiiñ nigāheñ un kī
kahīñ dhokā to mujhe merī nazar ne na diyā
yuuñ to rahne ko pareshānī-e-ḳhātir hī rahī
terī zulfoñ ko magar maiñ ne bikharne na diyā
phuul to phuul the ai ḳhāna-bar-andāz-e-chaman
tū ne kāñToñ se bhī dāman mujhe bharne na diyā
inhīñ alfāz meñ hai merī kahānī 'afzal'
ġham ne jiine na diyā shauq ne marne na diyā
dars-e-aram mere zauq-e-safar ne na diya
mujh ko manzil pe bhi zalim ne Thaharne na diya
raqs karti rahi tufan mein kashti meri
meri himmat ne mujhe par utarne na diya
zindagi maut se bad-tar thi par ai wada-e-dost
lazzat-e-kashmakash-e-shauq ne marne na diya
multafit kal nazar aati thin nigahen un ki
kahin dhoka to mujhe meri nazar ne na diya
yun to rahne ko pareshani-e-KHatir hi rahi
teri zulfon ko magar main ne bikharne na diya
phul to phul the ai KHana-bar-andaz-e-chaman
tu ne kanTon se bhi daman mujhe bharne na diya
inhin alfaz mein hai meri kahani 'afzal'
gham ne jine na diya shauq ne marne na diya
