ye misra kash naqsh-e-har-dar-o-diwar ho jae

ye misra.a kaash naqsh-e-har-dar-o-dīvār ho jaa.e

jise jiinā ho marne ke liye tayyār ho jaa.e

vahī mai-ḳhvār hai jo is tarah mai-ḳhvār ho jaa.e

ki shīsha toḌ de aur be-piye sarshār ho jaa.e

dil-e-insāñ agar shā.ista-e-asrār ho jaa.e

lab-e-ḳhāmosh-fitrat hī lab-e-guftār ho jaa.e

har ik be-kār sī hastī ba-rū-e-kār ho jaa.e

junūñ kī rūh-e-ḳhvābīda agar bedār ho jaa.e

sunā hai hashr meñ har aañkh use be-parda dekhegī

mujhe Dar hai na tauhīn-e-jamāl-e-yār ho jaa.e

harīm-e-nāz meñ us kī rasā.ī ho to kyūñkar ho

ki jo āsūda zer-e-sāya-e-dīvār ho jaa.e

ma.āz-allāh us kī vārdāt-e-ġham ma.āz-allāh

chaman jis kā vatan ho aur chaman-be-zār ho jaa.e

yahī hai zindagī to zindagī se ḳhud-kushī achchhī

ki insāñ ālam-e-insāniyat par baar ho jaa.e

ik aisī shaan paidā kar ki bātil thartharā uTThe

nazar talvār ban jaa.e nafas jhankār ho jaa.e

ye roz o shab ye sub.h o shaam ye bastī ye vīrāna

sabhī bedār haiñ insāñ agar bedār ho jaa.e

ye misra kash naqsh-e-har-dar-o-diwar ho jae

jise jina ho marne ke liye tayyar ho jae

wahi mai-KHwar hai jo is tarah mai-KHwar ho jae

ki shisha toD de aur be-piye sarshaar ho jae

dil-e-insan agar shaista-e-asrar ho jae

lab-e-KHamosh-fitrat hi lab-e-guftar ho jae

har ek be-kar si hasti ba-ru-e-kar ho jae

junun ki ruh-e-KHwabida agar bedar ho jae

suna hai hashr mein har aankh use be-parda dekhegi

mujhe Dar hai na tauhin-e-jamal-e-yar ho jae

harim-e-naz mein us ki rasai ho to kyunkar ho

ki jo aasuda zer-e-saya-e-diwar ho jae

maaz-allah us ki wardat-e-gham maaz-allah

chaman jis ka watan ho aur chaman-be-zar ho jae

yahi hai zindagi to zindagi se KHud-kushi achchhi

ki insan aalam-e-insaniyat par bar ho jae

ek aisi shan paida kar ki baatil tharthara uTThe

nazar talwar ban jae nafas jhankar ho jae

ye roz o shab ye subh o sham ye basti ye virana

sabhi bedar hain insan agar bedar ho jae
