hoga ham-chehra ru-e-dilbar ka

hogā ham-chehra rū-e-dilbar kā

muñh koī dekhe māh-e-anvar kā

chashm-e-tar kā jo imtihān karūñ

naam koī na le samundar kā

sang-e-ġham se na ho sakā sartāb

kohkan ban gayā thā patthar kā

ḳhud-numā.ī se kab milī fursat

aa.ina kab huzūr se sarkā

gardish-e-chashm idhar bhī ai saaqī

na karūñgā savāl sāġhar kā

kishvar-e-faqr be-takalluf hai

ek hai hukm ḳhāk-e-vāfar kā

mujh ko salmān kī qasam ai 'rashk'

banda-e-kam-tarīñ huuñ bū-zar kā

hoga ham-chehra ru-e-dilbar ka

munh koi dekhe mah-e-anwar ka

chashm-e-tar ka jo imtihan karun

nam koi na le samundar ka

sang-e-gham se na ho saka sartab

kohkan ban gaya tha patthar ka

KHud-numai se kab mili fursat

aaina kab huzur se sarka

gardish-e-chashm idhar bhi ai saqi

na karunga sawal saghar ka

kishwar-e-faqr be-takalluf hai

ek hai hukm KHak-e-wafar ka

mujh ko salman ki qasam ai 'rashk'

banda-e-kam-tarin hun bu-zar ka
