raaz-e-dil un par na ifsha kijiye

rāz-e-dil un par na ifshā kījiye

ārzūoñ ko na rusvā kījiye

ashk-e-sozāñ ko na chheḌā kījiye

aag paanī se na khelā kījiye

zer-e-ḳhanjar bhī na taḌpā kījiye

āfatoñ meñ muskurāyā kījiye

chupke chupke ḳhuub royā kījiye

yuuñ lagī dil kī bujhāyā kījiye

aap kī ulfat meñ sab kuchh kho chuke

ab kahāñ aañsū ki royā kījiye

lazzat-e-dard-e-nihāñ mil jaa.e gar

umr bhar phir aap taḌpā kījiye

phir kahāñ ye lazzat-e-soz-e-nihāñ

zaḳhm-e-dil kā kyoñ mudāvā kījiye

aarzū hī jab koī baaqī na ho

kyoñ kisī kī phir tamanna kījiye

ishq rusvā ai 'zakī' gar ho to ho

husn ko lekin na rusvā kījiye

raaz-e-dil un par na ifsha kijiye

aarzuon ko na ruswa kijiye

ashk-e-sozan ko na chheDa kijiye

aag pani se na khela kijiye

zer-e-KHanjar bhi na taDpa kijiye

aafaton mein muskuraya kijiye

chupke chupke KHub roya kijiye

yun lagi dil ki bujhaya kijiye

aap ki ulfat mein sab kuchh kho chuke

ab kahan aansu ki roya kijiye

lazzat-e-dard-e-nihan mil jae gar

umr bhar phir aap taDpa kijiye

phir kahan ye lazzat-e-soz-e-nihan

zaKHm-e-dil ka kyon mudawa kijiye

aarzu hi jab koi baqi na ho

kyon kisi ki phir tamanna kijiye

ishq ruswa ai 'zaki' gar ho to ho

husn ko lekin na ruswa kijiye
