siyah raat ki har dilkashi ko bhul gae
siyāh raat kī har dilkashī ko bhuul ga.e
diye jalā ke hamīñ raushnī ko bhuul ga.e
kisī kalī ke tabassum ne bekalī dī hai
kalī hañsī to ham apnī hañsī ko bhuul ga.e
jahāñ meñ aur rah-o-rasm-e-āshiqī kyā hai
fareb-ḳhurda tirī be-ruḳhī ko bhuul ga.e
yahī hai sheva-e-ahl-e-vafā zamāne meñ
kisī ko dil se lagāyā kisī ko bhuul ga.e
zarā sī baat pe dāman chhuḌā liyā ham se
tamām umr kī vābastagī ko bhuul ga.e
ḳhudā-parast ḳhudā se to lau lagāte rahe
ḳhudā kī shaan magar aadmī ko bhuul ga.e
vo jis ke ġham ne ġham-e-zindagī diyā hai 'zafar'
usī ke ġham meñ ġham-e-zindagī ko bhuul ga.e
siyah raat ki har dilkashi ko bhul gae
diye jala ke hamin raushni ko bhul gae
kisi kali ke tabassum ne bekali di hai
kali hansi to hum apni hansi ko bhul gae
jahan mein aur rah-o-rasm-e-ashiqi kya hai
fareb-KHurda teri be-ruKHi ko bhul gae
yahi hai shewa-e-ahl-e-wafa zamane mein
kisi ko dil se lagaya kisi ko bhul gae
zara si baat pe daman chhuDa liya hum se
tamam umr ki wabastagi ko bhul gae
KHuda-parast KHuda se to lau lagate rahe
KHuda ki shan magar aadmi ko bhul gae
wo jis ke gham ne gham-e-zindagi diya hai 'zafar'
usi ke gham mein gham-e-zindagi ko bhul gae
