    dhuup jab tak sar pe thī zer-e-qadam paa.e ga.e

    Dūbte sūraj meñ kitnī duur tak saa.e ga.e

    aaj bhī harf-e-tasallī hai shikast-e-dil pe tanz

    kitne jumle haiñ jo har mauqa.a pe dohrā.e ga.e

    is zamīn-e-saḳht ab khodnā bekār hai

    dafan the jo is ḳharābe meñ vo sarmā.e ga.e

    dushmanoñ tañg-zarfī nāpne ke vāste

    ham shikastoñ par shikasteñ umr bhar khaa.e ga.e

    ab darinda khojiyoñ dastaras meñ aa gayā

    nahr ke sāhil pe panjoñ ke nishāñ paa.e ga.e

    aaj se maiñ apne har iqdām meñ āzād huuñ

    jhāñkte the jo mire ghar meñ vo ham-sā.e ga.e

    in galī-kūchoñ meñ bahnoñ muhāfiz kaun hai

    kasb-e-zar dauḌ meñ bastī se māñ-jā.e ga.e

    dhup jab tak sar pe thi zer-e-qadam pae gae

    Dubte suraj mein kitni dur tak sae gae

    aaj bhi harf-e-tasalli hai shikast-e-dil pe tanz

    kitne jumle hain jo har mauqa pe dohrae gae

    is zamin-e-saKHt ka ab khodna bekar hai

    dafan the jo is KHarabe mein wo sarmae gae

    dushmanon ki tang-zarfi napne ke waste

    hum shikaston par shikasten umr bhar khae gae

    ab darinda khojiyon ki dastaras mein aa gaya

    nahr ke sahil pe panjon ke nishan pae gae

    aaj se main apne har iqdam mein aazad hun

    jhankte the jo mere ghar mein wo ham-sae gae

    in gali-kuchon mein bahnon ka muhafiz kaun hai

    kasb-e-zar ki dauD mein basti se man-jae gae
