man ke mandir mein hai udasi kyun
man ke mandir meñ hai udāsī kyuuñ
nahīñ aa.ī vo dev-dāsī kyuuñ
abr barsā baras ke khul bhī gayā
rah ga.ī phir zamīn pyāsī kyuuñ
ik ḳhushī kā ḳhayāl aate hī
chhā ga.ī zehn par udāsī kyuuñ
zindagī bevafā azal se hai
phir bhī lagtī hai bā-vafā sī kyuuñ
aisī fitrat-shikār-duniyā meñ
itnī insān-nā-shanāsī kyuuñ
kyuuñ nahīñ ek zāhir-o-bātin
aadmī ho ga.e siyāsī kyuuñ
ġham-gusārī ḳhulūs mehr-o-vafā
ho ga.e haiñ ye phuul baasī kyuuñ
ik haqīqat hai jab vatan kī talab
phir mohabbat kareñ qayāsī kyuuñ
ye mulāqāt ye sukūt ye shaam
ibtidā meñ ye intihā sī kyuuñ
milne vaale bichhaḌ bhī sakte haiñ
terī āñkhoñ meñ ye udāsī kyuuñ
man ke mandir mein hai udasi kyun
nahin aai wo dew-dasi kyun
abr barsa baras ke khul bhi gaya
rah gai phir zamin pyasi kyun
ek KHushi ka KHayal aate hi
chha gai zehn par udasi kyun
zindagi bewafa azal se hai
phir bhi lagti hai ba-wafa si kyun
aisi fitrat-shikar-duniya mein
itni insan-na-shanasi kyun
kyun nahin ek zahir-o-baatin
aadmi ho gae siyasi kyun
gham-gusari KHulus mehr-o-wafa
ho gae hain ye phul basi kyun
ek haqiqat hai jab watan ki talab
phir mohabbat karen qayasi kyun
ye mulaqat ye sukut ye sham
ibtida mein ye intiha si kyun
milne wale bichhaD bhi sakte hain
teri aankhon mein ye udasi kyun
