jo le ke unki tamanna ke KHwab niklega

jo le ke un kī tamannā ke ḳhvāb niklegā

ba-ijz-o-shauq ba-hāl-e-ḳharāb niklegā

jo rañg baañT ke jaatā hai tinke tinke ko

adū zamīñ kā yahī āftāb niklegā

bharī huī hai ka.ī din se dhund galiyoñ meñ

na jaane shahr se kab ye azaab niklegā

jo de rahe ho zamīñ ko vahī zamīñ degī

babūl bo.e to kaise gulāb niklegā

abhī to sub.h huī hai shab-e-tamannā kī

baheñge ashk to āñkhoñ se ḳhvāb niklegā

mire gunāh bahut haiñ magar taqābul meñ

usī kā lutf-o-karam be-hisāb niklegā

milā kisī ko na 'dānish' kuchh aarzū ke ḳhilāf

pas-e-fanā bhī yahī intiḳhāb niklegā

jo le ke un ki tamanna ke KHwab niklega

ba-ijz-o-shauq ba-haal-e-KHarab niklega

jo rang banT ke jata hai tinke tinke ko

adu zamin ka yahi aaftab niklega

bhari hui hai kai din se dhund galiyon mein

na jaane shahr se kab ye azab niklega

jo de rahe ho zamin ko wahi zamin degi

babul boe to kaise gulab niklega

abhi to subh hui hai shab-e-tamanna ki

bahenge ashk to aankhon se KHwab niklega

mere gunah bahut hain magar taqabul mein

usi ka lutf-o-karam be-hisab niklega

mila kisi ko na 'danish' kuchh aarzu ke KHilaf

pas-e-fana bhi yahi intiKHab niklega
