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 kā ġham baḌī qayāmat hai
aaj sab naqsh-e-ġham ubhar jaa.eñ
hai bahāroñ kī ruuh sog-nashīñ
saare aurāq-e-gul bikhar jaa.eñ
nāz-parvarda be-navā majbūr
jaane vaale ye sab kidhar jaa.eñ
kal kā din haa.e kal kā 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

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
