hum hatheli pe jaan rakhte hain
ham hathelī pe jaan rakhte haiñ
aur terī amaan rakhte haiñ
chand ashkoñ ke vāste sāhab
terī bātoñ kā maan rakhte haiñ
tum guzarte ho ajnabī ban kar
ham to dil par chaTān rakhte haiñ
jo bhī haiñ ham bas ik hamīñ haiñ ham
dost kyā kyā gumān rakhte haiñ
mīThī bātoñ se kyā unheñ matlab
har ghaḌī siinā taan rakhte haiñ
kitne shātir haiñ vo mire ham-dam
dil meñ tīr-o-kamān rakhte haiñ
ḳhāmushī maslahat rahī 'mahtāb'
varna ham bhī zabān rakhte haiñ
hum hatheli pe jaan rakhte hain
aur teri aman rakhte hain
chand ashkon ke waste sahab
teri baaton ka man rakhte hain
tum guzarte ho ajnabi ban kar
hum to dil par chaTan rakhte hain
jo bhi hain hum bas ek hamin hain hum
dost kya kya guman rakhte hain
miThi baaton se kya unhen matlab
har ghaDi sina tan rakhte hain
kitne shatir hain wo mere ham-dam
dil mein tir-o-kaman rakhte hain
KHamushi maslahat rahi 'mahtab'
warna hum bhi zaban rakhte hain
