mileñge raah meñ sahrā bahut bahut gulshan
ye dekhnā hai kahāñ roktī hai apnī thakan
chale chalo ki hai ārāsta rah-e-manzil
kahīñ hai daar ba-qadr-e-junūñ kahīñ hai rasan
rah-e-hayāt meñ ik rang meñ the kitne rang
ulajh ke rah gayā dil kī nigāh kā dāman
thī gul-misāl mirī guftugū tire ruḳh se
churā liyā tire hoñToñ se maiñ ne rang-e-suḳhan
kahāñ kahāñ na jalī terī yaad kī qindīl
kahāñ kahāñ na huī dil kī justujū raushan
milenge rah mein sahra bahut bahut gulshan
ye dekhna hai kahan rokti hai apni thakan
chale chalo ki hai aarasta rah-e-manzil
kahin hai dar ba-qadr-e-junun kahin hai rasan
rah-e-hayat mein ek rang mein the kitne rang
ulajh ke rah gaya dil ki nigah ka daman
thi gul-misal meri guftugu tere ruKH se
chura liya tere honTon se main ne rang-e-suKHan
kahan kahan na jali teri yaad ki qindil
kahan kahan na hui dil ki justuju raushan
