shab-e-be-mah bhi uski nahin kali hogi
shab-e-be-māh bhī us kī nahīñ kaalī hogī
jis ne katran bhī tire nuur kī pā lī hogī
log kahte haiñ koī tujh sā hasīñ aur bhī hai
maiñ ye kahtā huuñ ki ye baat ḳhayālī hogī
us ne bhī mujh ko yahī soch ke DhūñDā na kabhī
maiñ ne ab tak to na.ī duniyā basā lī hogī
jab sunā ek añdherā sā hai ghar meñ mere
dukh se bole mirī tasvīr haTā lī hogī
haiñ pashemāñ vo mo.attal tujhe kar ke ai dil
ġham na kar phir usī mansab pe bahālī hogī
aaTh das saal meñ 'mannān' ye ejāz-e-suḳhan
tum ne kuchh umr-e-suḳhan apnī chhupā lī ho hogī
shab-e-be-mah bhi us ki nahin kali hogi
jis ne katran bhi tere nur ki pa li hogi
log kahte hain koi tujh sa hasin aur bhi hai
main ye kahta hun ki ye baat KHayali hogi
us ne bhi mujh ko yahi soch ke DhunDa na kabhi
main ne ab tak to nai duniya basa li hogi
jab suna ek andhera sa hai ghar mein mere
dukh se bole meri taswir haTa li hogi
hain pasheman wo moattal tujhe kar ke ai dil
gham na kar phir usi mansab pe bahaali hogi
aaTh das sal mein 'mannan' ye ejaz-e-suKHan
tum ne kuchh umr-e-suKHan apni chhupa li ho hogi
