raqs karte jhumte aur jalte parwane mile

raqs karte jhūmte aur jalte parvāne mile

muskurāte maut ke saa.e meñ dīvāne mile

ahl-e-dil chalne lage jab bhī sū-e-dair-o-haram

muntazir us raah meñ har baar maiḳhāne mile

daur-e-māzī jab charāġh-e-yād se raushan huā

vaqt kī khultī huī har tah meñ afsāne mile

bhuul kar āzār-e-dil hairat meñ patthar ho ga.e

dushmanoñ ke bhes meñ jab jāne-pahchāne mile

ibtidā-e-ishq meñ sarsabz bāġhāt-e-ḳhayāl

intihā-e-ishq meñ ābād dohrāne mile

ālam-e-dīvāngī meñ aa gayā aisā maqām

tū hī tū aayā nazar jab apne begāne mile

kaun se fikr-o-tasavvur meñ piyā karte haiñ 'shauq'

rañg meñ Duube hue sab jām-o-paimāne mile

raqs karte jhumte aur jalte parwane mile

muskuraate maut ke sae mein diwane mile

ahl-e-dil chalne lage jab bhi su-e-dair-o-haram

muntazir us rah mein har bar maiKHane mile

daur-e-mazi jab charagh-e-yaad se raushan hua

waqt ki khulti hui har tah mein afsane mile

bhul kar aazar-e-dil hairat mein patthar ho gae

dushmanon ke bhes mein jab jaane-pahchane mile

ibtida-e-ishq mein sarsabz baghat-e-KHayal

intiha-e-ishq mein aabaad dohrane mile

aalam-e-diwangi mein aa gaya aisa maqam

tu hi tu aaya nazar jab apne begane mile

kaun se fikr-o-tasawwur mein piya karte hain 'shauq'

rang mein Dube hue sab jam-o-paimane mile
