phir marhala-e-KHwab-e-bahaaran se guzar ja

phir marhala-e-ḳhvāb-e-bahārāñ se guzar jā

mausam hai suhānā to garebāñ se guzar jā

shīshe ke makāñ aur nazar ke mutahammil

dīvāna na ban shahr-e-nigārāñ se guzar jā

sab qatl ke asbāb baham haiñ sar-e-maqtal

aise meñ pas-o-pesh na kar jaañ se guzar jā

phir deñge vahī mashvara-e-tark-e-mohabbat

ahbāb-numā halqa-e-yārāñ se guzar jā

kuchh duur nahīñ manzil-e-maqsūd-e-tamannā

ik fāsla-e-qurb-e-rag-e-jāñ se guzar jā

ai 'dil' inheñ idrāk kahāñ namratiyoñ kā

jo kahte haiñ pal bhar meñ bayābāñ se guzar jā

phir marhala-e-KHwab-e-bahaaran se guzar ja

mausam hai suhana to gareban se guzar ja

shishe ke makan aur nazar ke mutahammil

diwana na ban shahr-e-nigaran se guzar ja

sab qatl ke asbab baham hain sar-e-maqtal

aise mein pas-o-pesh na kar jaan se guzar ja

phir denge wahi mashwara-e-tark-e-mohabbat

ahbab-numa halqa-e-yaran se guzar ja

kuchh dur nahin manzil-e-maqsud-e-tamanna

ek fasla-e-qurb-e-rag-e-jaan se guzar ja

ai 'dil' inhen idrak kahan namratiyon ka

jo kahte hain pal bhar mein bayaban se guzar ja
