dil jahan bhi Duba hai unki yaad aai hai

dil jahāñ bhī Duubā hai un kī yaad aa.ī hai

haa.e kyā sukūñ-parvar dard-e-āshnā.ī hai

tum sarāb ban ban kar apnī chhab dikhāte ho

tishna-lab musāfir kī jaan par ban aa.ī hai

ye kashākash-e-hastī kitnī duur le aa.ī

din kahāñ guzārā hai shab kahāñ gañvā.ī hai

zindagī tirī ḳhātir tere dard-mandoñ ne

ik jahān kī tohmat apne sar uThā.ī hai

roz-o-shab mirī ḳhātir jis kā dil dhaḌaktā thā

ab ye haal hai us kī yaad bhī parā.ī hai

maiñ sadā-e-gum-gashta maiñ adā-e-nā-zebā

merā naam kitnoñ ko vaj.h-e-ḳhud-numā.ī hai

ḳhvāb ho chuke 'shāhīñ' saare vāqiye phir bhī

shahr shahr meñ ab tak dāstāñ-sarā.ī hai

dil jahan bhi Duba hai un ki yaad aai hai

hae kya sukun-parwar dard-e-ashnai hai

tum sarab ban ban kar apni chhab dikhate ho

tishna-lab musafir ki jaan par ban aai hai

ye kashakash-e-hasti kitni dur le aai

din kahan guzara hai shab kahan ganwai hai

zindagi teri KHatir tere dard-mandon ne

ek jahan ki tohmat apne sar uThai hai

roz-o-shab meri KHatir jis ka dil dhaDakta tha

ab ye haal hai us ki yaad bhi parai hai

main sada-e-gum-gashta main ada-e-na-zeba

mera nam kitnon ko wajh-e-KHud-numai hai

KHwab ho chuke 'shahin' sare waqiye phir bhi

shahr shahr mein ab tak dastan-sarai hai
