tanha safar hai aur hai yaadon ki qabr-gah

tanhā safar hai aur hai yādoñ kī qabr-gāh

Thahre hue samāñ meñ Dare jhīñguroñ kī aah

maddham lapaktī lau se chamak uThtā āsmāñ

aise meñ dard-e-hijr kī halkī sī ik nigāh

soz-e-darūñ meñ mast huuñ phir bhī koī kamīñ

hai chāhtī zarā kī abhī aur huuñ tabāh

mujh se ḳhalā meñ baat bhī karnā nahīñ rafīq

aise ḳhalā meñ baat bhī karnā hai ik gunāh

sab kā ḳhudā hai aur miyāñ merā koī aur

mere ḳhudā kī zulf se raushan hai shab-e-māh

tanha safar hai aur hai yaadon ki qabr-gah

Thahre hue saman mein Dare jhinguron ki aah

maddham lapakti lau se chamak uThta aasman

aise mein dard-e-hijr ki halki si ek nigah

soz-e-darun mein mast hun phir bhi koi kamin

hai chahti zara ki abhi aur hun tabah

mujh se KHala mein baat bhi karna nahin rafiq

aise KHala mein baat bhi karna hai ek gunah

sab ka KHuda hai aur miyan mera koi aur

mere KHuda ki zulf se raushan hai shab-e-mah
