falak pe chand hai aur pas ek sitara hai
falak pe chāñd hai aur paas ik sitāra hai
ye terī merī mohabbat kā isti.āra hai
shab-o-sahar ke tasalsul meñ ye tulū-o-ġhurūb
samajhne vāloñ ko ik dukh-bharā ishāra hai
ye tere sozan-e-mizhgāñ ke bas kī baat nahīñ
yahāñ to pairahan-e-jāñ hī pāra-pāra hai
faqat karishma-e-tarz-e-nazar hai sūd-o-ziyāñ
kisī kā naf.a kisī ke liye ḳhasāra hai
vo jis ne mujh ko kahīñ kā nahīñ rakhā ik umr
vahī ḳhayāl vahī aarzū dobāra hai
na.ī jagah mujhe mānūs sī lagī to khulā
ye koī ḳhvāb meñ dekhā huā nazāra hai
yahāñ se jo bhī gayā lauT kar nahīñ aayā
batā.e kaun kahāñ dūsrā kināra hai
falak pe chand hai aur pas ek sitara hai
ye teri meri mohabbat ka istiara hai
shab-o-sahar ke tasalsul mein ye tulu-o-ghurub
samajhne walon ko ek dukh-bhara ishaara hai
ye tere sozan-e-mizhgan ke bas ki baat nahin
yahan to pairahan-e-jaan hi para-para hai
faqat karishma-e-tarz-e-nazar hai sud-o-ziyan
kisi ka nafa kisi ke liye KHasara hai
wo jis ne mujh ko kahin ka nahin rakha ek umr
wahi KHayal wahi aarzu dobara hai
nai jagah mujhe manus si lagi to khula
ye koi KHwab mein dekha hua nazara hai
yahan se jo bhi gaya lauT kar nahin aaya
batae kaun kahan dusra kinara hai
