najat ke liye roz-e-siyah mangti hai
najāt ke liye roz-e-siyāh māñgtī hai
zamīn ahl-e-zamīñ se panāh māñgtī hai
bharā na atlas-o-marmar se peT ḳhilqat kā
ye bad-nihād ab āb-o-giyāh māñgtī hai
riyāzatoñ se farishta-sifat to ho na sakī
mohabbat aa.ī hai tāb-e-gunāh māñgtī hai
vo rañg-e-kūcha-o-bāzār hai ki ab bastī
gharoñ se duur alag qatl-gāh māñgtī hai
ragoñ meñ dauḌtā phirtā hai ijz sadiyoñ kā
ra.ī.yat aaj bhī ik bādshāh māñgtī hai
najat ke liye roz-e-siyah mangti hai
zamin ahl-e-zamin se panah mangti hai
bhara na atlas-o-marmar se peT KHilqat ka
ye bad-nihad ab aab-o-giyah mangti hai
riyazaton se farishta-sifat to ho na saki
mohabbat aai hai tab-e-gunah mangti hai
wo rang-e-kucha-o-bazar hai ki ab basti
gharon se dur alag qatl-gah mangti hai
ragon mein dauDta phirta hai ijz sadiyon ka
raiyat aaj bhi ek baadshah mangti hai
