qarib bhi to nahin ho ki aa ke so jao
qarīb bhī to nahīñ ho ki aa ke so jaao
sitāroñ jaao kahīñ aur jā ke so jaao
thakan zarūrī nahīñ raat bhī zarūrī nahīñ
koī hasīn bahāna banā ke so jaao
kahāniyāñ thī vo rāteñ kahāniyāñ the vo log
charāġh gul karo aur bujh-bujhā ke so jaao
tarīq-e-kār badalne se kuchh nayā hogā
jo duur hai use nazdīk lā ke so jaao
ḳhasāre jitne hue haiñ vo jāgne se hue
so har taraf se sadā hai ke jā ke so jaao
ye kār-e-sher bhī ik kār-e-ḳhair jaisā hai
ke taaq taaq jalo lau baḌhā ke so jaao
udaas rahne kī aadat bahut burī hai tumheñ
latīfe yaad karo hañs-hañsā ke so jaao
qarib bhi to nahin ho ki aa ke so jao
sitaron jao kahin aur ja ke so jao
thakan zaruri nahin raat bhi zaruri nahin
koi hasin bahana bana ke so jao
kahaniyan thi wo raaten kahaniyan the wo log
charagh gul karo aur bujh-bujha ke so jao
tariq-e-kar badalne se kuchh naya hoga
jo dur hai use nazdik la ke so jao
KHasare jitne hue hain wo jagne se hue
so har taraf se sada hai ke ja ke so jao
ye kar-e-sher bhi ek kar-e-KHair jaisa hai
ke taq taq jalo lau baDha ke so jao
udas rahne ki aadat bahut buri hai tumhein
latife yaad karo hans-hansa ke so jao
