raat ka apna ek taqaddus hai so use paemal mat karna

raat kā apnā ik taqaddus hai so use pā.emāl mat karnā

jab diye guftugū ke raushan hoñ lauTne kā savāl mat karnā

mausam-e-yād kā koī jhoñkā, ab jo guzre tumhārī ḳhalvat se

soch lenā hamāre baare meñ, par hamārā malāl mat karnā

rat-jagoñ kī ruteñ to ḳhair yūñhī aatī jaatī haiñ, par ye dhyān rahe

jāgnā bhī to is salīqe se, apnī āñkhoñ ko laal mat karnā

ham se darvesh duniyā vāloñ se, bas isī baat par ulajhte haiñ

vahshat-e-jism-o-jāñ baḌī shai hai ḳhud ko āsūda-hāl mat karnā

dasht-e-ibrat-sarā meñ rahnā tū sar se saudā nikāl kar rakhnā

log dushman kahīñ na ho jaa.eñ koī aisā kamāl mat karnā

lamha-e-hijr apnī vus.at meñ, aap lazzat hai, zindagī bhar kī

tum bhī 'ḳhālid-moīn' yuuñ karnā, umr sarf-e-visāl mat karnā

raat ka apna ek taqaddus hai so use paemal mat karna

jab diye guftugu ke raushan hon lauTne ka sawal mat karna

mausam-e-yaad ka koi jhonka, ab jo guzre tumhaari KHalwat se

soch lena hamare bare mein, par hamara malal mat karna

rat-jagon ki ruten to KHair yunhi aati jati hain, par ye dhyan rahe

jagna bhi to is saliqe se, apni aankhon ko lal mat karna

hum se darwesh duniya walon se, bas isi baat par ulajhte hain

wahshat-e-jism-o-jaan baDi shai hai KHud ko aasuda-haal mat karna

dasht-e-ibrat-sara mein rahna tu sar se sauda nikal kar rakhna

log dushman kahin na ho jaen koi aisa kamal mat karna

lamha-e-hijr apni wusat mein, aap lazzat hai, zindagi bhar ki

tum bhi 'KHalid-moin' yun karna, umr sarf-e-visal mat karna
