soz-e-dil sham-e-tapan ho jaise

soz-e-dil sham-e-tapāñ ho jaise

aag chūlhe meñ nihāñ ho jaise

kaisī afsurda bahār aa.ī hai

ab bhī gulshan meñ ḳhizāñ ho jaise

mujh pe mahfil meñ tabassum kī nazar

ba-tufail-e-digrāñ ho jaise

aap kī chashm-e-ināyat kā yaqīñ

dil-fareb ek gumāñ ho jaise

yuuñ vo sunte haiñ kahānī merī

ik hadīs-e-digrāñ ho jaise

chauñk uThe ham to qayāmat hogī

zindagī ḳhvāb-e-girāñ ho jaise

dil se ik aah to niklī thī magar

sham-e-kushta kā dhuāñ ho jaise

sāmne un ke ye aalam hai 'razā'

ek aalam nigarāñ ho jaise

soz-e-dil sham-e-tapan ho jaise

aag chulhe mein nihan ho jaise

kaisi afsurda bahaar aai hai

ab bhi gulshan mein KHizan ho jaise

mujh pe mahfil mein tabassum ki nazar

ba-tufail-e-digran ho jaise

aap ki chashm-e-inayat ka yaqin

dil-fareb ek guman ho jaise

yun wo sunte hain kahani meri

ek hadis-e-digran ho jaise

chaunk uThe hum to qayamat hogi

zindagi KHwab-e-giran ho jaise

dil se ek aah to nikli thi magar

sham-e-kushta ka dhuan ho jaise

samne un ke ye aalam hai 'raza'

ek aalam nigaran ho jaise
