nawah-e-dil mein ye meri misal jalte rahen

navāh-e-dil meñ ye merī misāl jalte raheñ

ḳhas-o-gulāb nabāt-o-nihāl jalte raheñ

kabhī na sard paḌe garmī-e-nashāt-e-nafas

tamām paikar-e-fikr-o-ḳhayāl jalte raheñ

ye jabr-e-vaqt hai kaisā ki us kī yaad ke chāñd

ugeñ to phir sar-e-shāḳh-e-malāl jalte raheñ

havā-e-hijr abhī tak hai mahv-e-ḳhvāb kahīñ

fasīl-e-jāñ pe charāġh-e-visāl jalte raheñ

yūñhī rivāyat-e-tīr-o-kamāñ rahe raushan

nuqūsh-e-vahshat-e-pā-e-ġhazāl jalte raheñ

lage to qasr-e-shab-o-roz meñ bhī aag lage

jaleñ to sadiyoñ talak māh-o-sāl jalte raheñ

ham us kī raah meñ raushan kiye ga.e haiñ so 'ramz'

kareñ na us se koī arz-e-hāl jalte raheñ

nawah-e-dil mein ye meri misal jalte rahen

KHas-o-gulab nabaat-o-nihaal jalte rahen

kabhi na sard paDe garmi-e-nashat-e-nafas

tamam paikar-e-fikr-o-KHayal jalte rahen

ye jabr-e-waqt hai kaisa ki us ki yaad ke chand

ugen to phir sar-e-shaKH-e-malal jalte rahen

hawa-e-hijr abhi tak hai mahw-e-KHwab kahin

fasil-e-jaan pe charagh-e-visal jalte rahen

yunhi riwayat-e-tir-o-kaman rahe raushan

nuqush-e-wahshat-e-pa-e-ghazal jalte rahen

lage to qasr-e-shab-o-roz mein bhi aag lage

jalen to sadiyon talak mah-o-sal jalte rahen

hum us ki rah mein raushan kiye gae hain so 'ramz'

karen na us se koi arz-e-haal jalte rahen
