dilon se yas-o-alam ke naqab utaro to

diloñ se yās-o-alam ke naqāb utāro to

sahar bhī ruup dikhā.egī shab guzāro to

fazā ke siine meñ naġhmoñ ke lai utāro to

usī adā se zarā phir mujhe pukāro to

mire ġhamoñ ke dhundalke bhī chhaT hī jā.eñge

tum apne gesū-e-shab-rañg ko sañvāro to

kahāñ ga.e mujhe tārīkiyoñ meñ uljhā kar

hayāt-e-rafta ke lamho zarā pukāro to

ḳhizāñ-rasīda fazāoñ ko ro.o.ge kab tak

bahār gosh-bar-āvāz hai pukāro to

phir is ke ba.ad sahar hī sahar hai ai 'arshad'

ruḳh-e-hayāt ke tevar zarā nikhāro to

dilon se yas-o-alam ke naqab utaro to

sahar bhi rup dikhaegi shab guzaro to

faza ke sine mein naghmon ke lai utaro to

usi ada se zara phir mujhe pukaro to

mere ghamon ke dhundalke bhi chhaT hi jaenge

tum apne gesu-e-shab-rang ko sanwaro to

kahan gae mujhe tarikiyon mein uljha kar

hayat-e-rafta ke lamho zara pukaro to

KHizan-rasida fazaon ko rooge kab tak

bahaar gosh-bar-awaz hai pukaro to

phir is ke baad sahar hi sahar hai ai 'arshad'

ruKH-e-hayat ke tewar zara nikhaaro to
