    ajiib kūcha-e-rashk-e-jināñ thā dehlī

    bahisht kahte haiñ jis ko makāñ thā dehlī

    dimāġh bar-sar-e-haft-āsmāñ thā dehlī

    ḳhitāb-e-ḳhitta-e-hindostāñ thā dehlī

    ġhazab hai us ko koī shādmāñ na dekh sakā

    zamīñ na dekh sakī āsmāñ na dekh sakā

    hazāroñ zulf-e-parī-vash ke yaañ the saudā.ī

    hazāroñ mai-kash-o-mai-ḳhvār-o-mast-o-sahbā.ī

    sharāb-e-aish pilātā thā charḳh-e-mīnā.ī

    qubūl karte the is dar pe sab jabīñ-sā.ī

    jo aatā thā so vo ho rahtā thā usī ghar

    zamīñ naaf hai ka.aba hai batn-e-mādar

    vo taḳht-e-saltanat-o-bārgāh-e-sultānī

    ki jis meñ baiThte the aa ke zill-e-sub.hānī

    paroñ se sar pe humā kartā thā magas-rānī

    bajā us auj pe thā da.avā-e-sulaimānī

    har ek qasr ko da.avā thā tāq-e-kisrā

    dimāġh arsh pe thā qila-e-muallā

    zuhal aañkh paḌī ittifāq se nāgāh

    tamām ho gayā tārāj mulk-o-māl aur jaah

    ki us se ho ga.e bad-tar ġharīb shāhanshāh

    ra.ī.yat us huī us se bhī ziyāda tabāh

    vo sāhūkār na thā jis saakh meñ baTTā

    ab us ke naam pe lagtā hai laakh meñ baTTā

    milā ye hukm ki sab log yaañ se Tal jaa.eñ

    isī meñ ḳhair hai jo shahr se nikal jaa.eñ

    dabī hai buqchī to dikhlā ke yaañ baġhal jaa.eñ

    jo kuchh hai chhoḌ yahāñ sāhab-e-daval jaa.eñ

    na sar pe Topī hai un ke na paañv meñ juutī

    baġhal meñ tote piñjḌā nabī-jī bhejo

    yahāñ jo aan dekhī to daar sūrat

    vo daar kahiye jise zulfiqār sūrat

    miTā chashm-e-zadan meñ hazār sūrat

    nazar paḌī na kisī be-qarār sūrat

    ba-rañg-e-tīr-e-shahāb aag meñ jale lākhoñ

    sipurd dār-o-rasan ho ga.e gale lākhoñ

    ajib kucha-e-rashk-e-jinan tha dehli ka

    bahisht kahte hain jis ko makan tha dehli ka

    dimagh bar-sar-e-haft-asman tha dehli ka

    KHitab-e-KHitta-e-hindostan tha dehli ka

    ghazab hai us ko koi shadman na dekh saka

    zamin na dekh saki aasman na dekh saka

    hazaron zulf-e-pari-wash ke yan the saudai

    hazaron mai-kash-o-mai-KHwar-o-mast-o-sahbai

    sharab-e-aish pilata tha charKH-e-minai

    qubul karte the is dar pe sab jabin-sai

    jo aata tha so wo ho rahta tha usi ghar ka

    zamin ki naf hai kaba hai batn-e-madar ka

    wo taKHt-e-saltanat-o-bargah-e-sultani

    ki jis mein baiThte the aa ke zill-e-subhani

    paron se sar pe huma karta tha magas-rani

    baja us auj pe tha dawa-e-sulaimani

    har ek qasr ko dawa tha taq-e-kisra ka

    dimagh arsh pe tha qila-e-mualla ka

    zuhal ki aankh paDi ittifaq se nagah

    tamam ho gaya taraj mulk-o-mal aur jah

    ki us se ho gae bad-tar gharib shahanshah

    raiyat us ki hui us se bhi ziyaada tabah

    wo sahukar na tha jis ki sakh mein baTTa

    ab us ke nam pe lagta hai lakh mein baTTa

    mila ye hukm ki sab log yan se Tal jaen

    isi mein KHair hai jo shahr se nikal jaen

    dabi hai buqchi to dikhla ke yan baghal jaen

    jo kuchh hai chhoD yahan sahab-e-dawal jaen

    na sar pe Topi hai un ke na panw mein juti

    baghal mein tote ka pinjDa nabi-ji bhejo ji

    yahan jo aan ki dekhi to dar ki surat

    wo dar kahiye jise zulfiqar ki surat

    miTa di chashm-e-zadan mein hazar ki surat

    nazar paDi na kisi be-qarar ki surat

    ba-rang-e-tir-e-shahab aag mein jale lakhon

    sipurd dar-o-rasan ho gae gale lakhon
