har uqda-e-taqdir jahan khol rahi hai

har uqda-e-taqdīr jahāñ khol rahī hai

haañ dhyān se sunñā ye sadī bol rahī hai

añgḌā.iyāñ letī hai tamannā tirī dil meñ

shīshe meñ parī naaz ke par taul rahī hai

rah rah ke khanak jaatī hai saaqī ye shab-e-māh

ik jaam pilā ḳhunkī-e-shab bol rahī hai

dil tañg hai shab ko kafan-e-nūr pinhā ke

vo sub.h jo ġhunchoñ kī girah khol rahī hai

shabnam kī damak hai ki shab-e-māh kī devī

motī sar-e-gulzār-e-jahāñ rol rahī hai

rakhtī hai mashiyyat had-e-parvāz jahāñ bhī

insān kī himmat vahīñ par tol rahī hai

pahlū meñ shab-e-tār ke hai kaun sī duniyā

jis ke liye āġhosh sahar khol rahī hai

har aan vo rag rag meñ chaTaktī huī kaliyāñ

us shoḳh kī ik ek adā bol rahī hai

har uqda-e-taqdir jahan khol rahi hai

han dhyan se sunna ye sadi bol rahi hai

angDaiyan leti hai tamanna teri dil mein

shishe mein pari naz ke par taul rahi hai

rah rah ke khanak jati hai saqi ye shab-e-mah

ek jam pila KHunki-e-shab bol rahi hai

dil tang hai shab ko kafan-e-nur pinha ke

wo subh jo ghunchon ki girah khol rahi hai

shabnam ki damak hai ki shab-e-mah ki dewi

moti sar-e-gulzar-e-jahan rol rahi hai

rakhti hai mashiyyat had-e-parwaz jahan bhi

insan ki himmat wahin par tol rahi hai

pahlu mein shab-e-tar ke hai kaun si duniya

jis ke liye aaghosh sahar khol rahi hai

har aan wo rag rag mein chaTakti hui kaliyan

us shoKH ki ek ek ada bol rahi hai
