kaTi hai gham ki raat baDe ehtiram se
kaaTī hai ġham kī raat baḌe ehtirām se
aksar bujhā diyā hai charāġhoñ ko shaam se
raushan hai apnī bazm aur is ehtimām se
kuchh dil bhī jal rahā hai charāġhoñ ke naam se
muddat huī hai ḳhūn-e-tamannā kiye magar
ab tak Tapak rahā hai lahū dil ke jaam se
sub.h-e-bahār ham ko bulātī rahī magar
ham khelte rahe kisī zulfoñ kī shaam se
har saañs par hai maut kā pahrā lagā huā
āhista ai hayāt guzar is maqām se
kaaTī tamām umr fareb-e-bahār meñ
kāñTe sameTte rahe phūloñ ke naam se
ye aur baat hai ki 'alī' ham na sun sake
āvāz us ne dī hai hameñ har maqām se
kaTi hai gham ki raat baDe ehtiram se
aksar bujha diya hai charaghon ko sham se
raushan hai apni bazm aur is ehtimam se
kuchh dil bhi jal raha hai charaghon ke nam se
muddat hui hai KHun-e-tamanna kiye magar
ab tak Tapak raha hai lahu dil ke jam se
subh-e-bahaar hum ko bulati rahi magar
hum khelte rahe kisi zulfon ki sham se
har sans par hai maut ka pahra laga hua
aahista ai hayat guzar is maqam se
kaTi tamam umr fareb-e-bahaar mein
kanTe sameTte rahe phulon ke nam se
ye aur baat hai ki 'ali' hum na sun sake
aawaz us ne di hai hamein har maqam se
