humne sikha hai mohabbat karna

ham ne sīkhā hai mohabbat karnā

ek ik dil pe hukūmat karnā

ham bhī tārīḳh badal sakte haiñ

shart hai himmat-o-jur.at karnā

zeb detā nahīñ insānoñ ko

kisī insāñ kī ibādat karnā

rakh ke ḳhud apnī zarūrat ko udhār

puurī auroñ kī zarūrat karnā

shab kī tārīkī meñ sīkhā ham ne

chāñd tāroñ kī tilāvat karnā

āḳhirī saañs talak jīvan kī

mard kī shaan hai mehnat karnā

farz se haj ke hai afzal 'hāfiz'

būḌhe māñ-bāp kī ḳhidmat karnā

hum ne sikha hai mohabbat karna

ek ek dil pe hukumat karna

hum bhi tariKH badal sakte hain

shart hai himmat-o-jurat karna

zeb deta nahin insanon ko

kisi insan ki ibaadat karna

rakh ke KHud apni zarurat ko udhaar

puri auron ki zarurat karna

shab ki tariki mein sikha hum ne

chand taron ki tilawat karna

aaKHiri sans talak jiwan ki

mard ki shan hai mehnat karna

farz se haj ke hai afzal 'hafiz'

buDhe man-bap ki KHidmat karna
