lapaT wo zulf ki jaan-baKHsh aur wo pyari raat
lapaT vo zulf kī jāñ-baḳhsh aur vo pyārī raat
basar huī kabhī aisī bhī saarī saarī raat
kahāñ vo bistar-e-dībā hasīr-e-kohna kahāñ
kujā amīroñ kī rāteñ kahāñ hamārī raat
firāq-e-yād meñ guzrā hai jaise saarā din
yuuñ hī kaTegī ba-sad āh-o-be-qarārī raat
udaas shaam se baiThe haiñ chāragar saare
zarūr hai tire bīmār-e-ġham pe bhārī raat
sahar ke pahle hī ai 'shād' so rahūñgā maiñ
satā ke mujh ko uThā.egī sharmsārī raat
lapaT wo zulf ki jaan-baKHsh aur wo pyari raat
basar hui kabhi aisi bhi sari sari raat
kahan wo bistar-e-diba hasir-e-kohna kahan
kuja amiron ki raaten kahan hamari raat
firaq-e-yaad mein guzra hai jaise sara din
yun hi kaTegi ba-sad aah-o-be-qarari raat
udas sham se baiThe hain chaaragar sare
zarur hai tere bimar-e-gham pe bhaari raat
sahar ke pahle hi ai 'shad' so rahunga main
sata ke mujh ko uThaegi sharmsari raat
