naghma-e-zanjir hai aur shahr-e-yaran in dinon
naġhma-e-zanjīr hai aur shahr-e-yārāñ in dinoñ
hai bahut ahl-e-junūñ shor-e-bahārāñ in dinoñ
us vafā-dushman se paimān-e-vafā hai ustuvār
zer-e-sañg-e-saḳht hai phir dast-e-yārāñ in dinoñ
mohtasib bhī halqa-e-rindāñ kā hai ummīd-vār
kam na ho jaa.e vaqār-e-mai-gusārāñ in dinoñ
tezī-e-teġh-e-adā kī shohrateñ haiñ duur duur
hai bahut ābād kū-e-dil-figārāñ in dinoñ
dosto pairāhan-e-jāñ ḳhūn-e-dil se surḳh-tar
baḌh gayā hai iltifāt-e-gul-ezārāñ in dinoñ
ahl-e-dil par bārish-e-lutf-e-nigāh-e-dil-navāz
mehrbāñ hai ishq par chashm-e-nigārāñ in dinoñ
hai gadā-e-mai-kada ke sar pe tāj-e-khusravī
kūza-gar kī gil hai ḳhāk-e-shahr-e-yārāñ in dinoñ
kyā ajab ishrat-kadoñ par bijliyāñ girne lagīñ
hai bahut sarkash nigāh-e-sogvārāñ in dinoñ
naghma-e-zanjir hai aur shahr-e-yaran in dinon
hai bahut ahl-e-junun shor-e-bahaaran in dinon
us wafa-dushman se paiman-e-wafa hai ustuwar
zer-e-sang-e-saKHt hai phir dast-e-yaran in dinon
mohtasib bhi halqa-e-rindan ka hai ummid-war
kam na ho jae waqar-e-mai-gusaran in dinon
tezi-e-tegh-e-ada ki shohraten hain dur dur
hai bahut aabaad ku-e-dil-figaran in dinon
dosto pairahan-e-jaan KHun-e-dil se surKH-tar
baDh gaya hai iltifat-e-gul-ezaran in dinon
ahl-e-dil par barish-e-lutf-e-nigah-e-dil-nawaz
mehrban hai ishq par chashm-e-nigaran in dinon
hai gada-e-mai-kada ke sar pe taj-e-khusrawi
kuza-gar ki gil hai KHak-e-shahr-e-yaran in dinon
kya ajab ishrat-kadon par bijliyan girne lagin
hai bahut sarkash nigah-e-sogwaran in dinon
