dil agar daghdar ho jata
dil agar dāġhdār ho jaatā
ik sarāpā bahār ho jaatā
dāman-e-sabr hijr ke hāthoñ
kyuuñ na yuuñ tār-tār ho jaatā
vaa.e majbūriyāñ mohabbat kī
zabt par iḳhtiyār ho jaatā
maiñ ne yuuñ shikva-e-jafā na kiyā
vo agar sharmsār ho jaatā
paas hotā agar vo jān-e-bahār
be-niyāz-e-bahār ho jaatā
ik nigāh-e-karam jo ho jaatī
phir to beḌā hī paar ho jaatā
un kī tirchhī nazar kā kyā kahnā
jis pe paḌtī shikār ho jaatā
un nigāhoñ kī mastiyāñ tauba
mai-kada sharmsār ho jaatā
pyaar karte haiñ vo jinheñ 'shankar'
kaash un meñ shumār ho jaatā
dil agar daghdar ho jata
ek sarapa bahaar ho jata
daman-e-sabr hijr ke hathon
kyun na yun tar-tar ho jata
wae majburiyan mohabbat ki
zabt par iKHtiyar ho jata
main ne yun shikwa-e-jafa na kiya
wo agar sharmsar ho jata
pas hota agar wo jaan-e-bahaar
be-niyaz-e-bahaar ho jata
ek nigah-e-karam jo ho jati
phir to beDa hi par ho jata
un ki tirchhi nazar ka kya kahna
jis pe paDti shikar ho jata
un nigahon ki mastiyan tauba
mai-kada sharmsar ho jata
pyar karte hain wo jinhen 'shankar'
kash un mein shumar ho jata
