    chāra-gar bhī jo yuuñ guzar jaa.eñ

    chāra-gar bhī jo yuuñ guzar jaa.eñ

    phir ye bīmār kis ke ghar jaa.eñ

    aaj ġham baḌī qayāmat hai

    aaj sab naqsh-e-ġham ubhar jaa.eñ

    hai bahāroñ ruuh sog-nashīñ

    saare aurāq-e-gul bikhar jaa.eñ

    nāz-parvarda be-navā majbūr

    jaane vaale ye sab kidhar jaa.eñ

    kal din haa.e kal din ai 'jaun'

    kaash is raat ham bhī mar jaa.eñ

    hai shab-e-mātam-e-masīhā.ī

    ashk dāman meñ tā-sahar jaa.eñ

    marne vaale tire janāze meñ

    kyā faqat ham ba-chashm-tar jaa.eñ

    kaash dil ḳhuun ho ke bah jaa.e

    kaash āñkheñ lahū meñ bhar jaa.eñ

    chaara-gar bhi jo yun guzar jaen

    chaara-gar bhi jo yun guzar jaen

    phir ye bimar kis ke ghar jaen

    aaj ka gham baDi qayamat hai

    aaj sab naqsh-e-gham ubhar jaen

    hai bahaaron ki ruh sog-nashin

    sare auraq-e-gul bikhar jaen

    naz-parwarda be-nawa majbur

    jaane wale ye sab kidhar jaen

    kal ka din hae kal ka din ai 'jaun'

    kash is raat hum bhi mar jaen

    hai shab-e-matam-e-masihai

    ashk daman mein ta-sahar jaen

    marne wale tere janaze mein

    kya faqat hum ba-chashm-tar jaen

    kash dil KHun ho ke bah jae

    kash aankhen lahu mein bhar jaen
