jaan-e-be-tab ajab tere Thikane nikle

jān-e-be-tāb ajab tere Thikāne nikle

bārish-e-sañg meñ sab ā.ina-ḳhāne nikle

sab baḌe zo.am se aa.e the na.e sūrat-gar

sab ke dāman se vahī ḳhvāb purāne nikle

raat har vādā-o-paimān amar lagtā thā

sub.h ke saath ka.ī uzr bahāne nikle

ai kisī aate hue zinda zamāne ke ḳhayāl

ham tire rāste meñ palkeñ bichhāne nikle

kāsa-e-dard liye kab se khaḌe sochte haiñ

dast-e-imkān se kyā chiiz na jaane nikle

harf-e-inkār sar-e-bazm kahā maiñ ne 'zafar'

laakh andeshe mire dil ko Darāne nikle

jaan-e-be-tab ajab tere Thikane nikle

barish-e-sang mein sab aaina-KHane nikle

sab baDe zoam se aae the nae surat-gar

sab ke daman se wahi KHwab purane nikle

raat har wada-o-paiman amar lagta tha

subh ke sath kai uzr bahane nikle

ai kisi aate hue zinda zamane ke KHayal

hum tere raste mein palken bichhane nikle

kasa-e-dard liye kab se khaDe sochte hain

dast-e-imkan se kya chiz na jaane nikle

harf-e-inkar sar-e-bazm kaha main ne 'zafar'

lakh andeshe mere dil ko Darane nikle
