kabhi gulon kabhi Khaaron ke darmiyan guzri
kabhī guloñ kabhī ḳhāroñ ke darmiyāñ guzrī
sabā chaman se ba-zāhir to shādmāñ guzrī
usī kā naam azal hai usī kā naam abad
vo ek raat jo phūloñ ke darmiyāñ guzrī
kahīñ lapak uThe sho.ale kahīñ mahak uThe gul
shab-e-firāq na pūchho kahāñ kahāñ guzrī
ba-shakl-e-qāmat-e-ādam ba-tarz-e-raqs-e-parī
hamāre sar pe qayāmat bhī kyā javāñ guzrī
kabhī kabhī to ġham-e-dil kī lai baḌhī itnī
dil-e-hayāt kī dhaḌkan bhī kuchh garāñ guzrī
baḌe nasheb bahut pech-o-ḳham the rāhoñ meñ
magar ye umr-e-do-roza ravāñ-davāñ guzrī
baham rahe haiñ sar-o-sīna yak-digar kyā kyā
ki sar pe teġh paḌī dil se jab sināñ guzrī
kabhi gulon kabhi KHaron ke darmiyan guzri
saba chaman se ba-zahir to shadman guzri
usi ka nam azal hai usi ka nam abad
wo ek raat jo phulon ke darmiyan guzri
kahin lapak uThe shoale kahin mahak uThe gul
shab-e-firaq na puchho kahan kahan guzri
ba-shakl-e-qamat-e-adam ba-tarz-e-raqs-e-pari
hamare sar pe qayamat bhi kya jawan guzri
kabhi kabhi to gham-e-dil ki lai baDhi itni
dil-e-hayat ki dhaDkan bhi kuchh garan guzri
baDe nasheb bahut pech-o-KHam the rahon mein
magar ye umr-e-do-roza rawan-dawan guzri
baham rahe hain sar-o-sina yak-digar kya kya
ki sar pe tegh paDi dil se jab sinan guzri
