husn ko mutlaqan nahin hai sabaat
husn ko mutlaqan nahīñ hai sabāt
ishq aayā hai pī kar āb-e-hayāt
hijr meñ yuuñ guzarte haiñ lamhāt
ik nafas maut hai to ek hayāt
ishq hai mish.al-e-nazar varna
zindagī kyā hai ik añdherī raat
aql kī istiqāmateñ taslīm
laġhzish-e-be-ḳhudī bhī hai ik baat
maut hai zindagī se be-zārī
zindagī kyā hai ārzū-e-hayāt
ḳhuld-parvar hai har nigāh-e-sahar
ye ḳhat-e-jām hai ki rāh-e-najāt
husn ko mutlaqan nahin hai sabaat
ishq aaya hai pi kar aab-e-hayat
hijr mein yun guzarte hain lamhat
ek nafas maut hai to ek hayat
ishq hai mishal-e-nazar warna
zindagi kya hai ek andheri raat
aql ki istiqamaten taslim
laghzish-e-be-KHudi bhi hai ek baat
maut hai zindagi se be-zari
zindagi kya hai aarzu-e-hayat
KHuld-parwar hai har nigah-e-sahar
ye KHat-e-jam hai ki rah-e-najat
