    zindagī naach ki har lamha hai jannat-ba-kanār

    dekh ye lab haiñ ye āñkheñ ye gulābī ruḳhsār

    phir na aa.egī palaT kar tirī duniyā meñ bahār

    aaj raat ġhanīmat hai charāġhāñ kar leñ

    ek añgḌā.ī jo khul ga.iiñ kaalī zulfeñ

    phir mujhe khīñch rahī haiñ ye ghanerī palkeñ

    dekh haijān se larzāñ haiñ ye aariz rageñ

    aaj us jins-e-girāñ-bār ko arzāñ kar leñ

    aaj raat ġhanīmat hai charāġhāñ kar leñ

    dekh vo hoñT hile haath uThe saaz baje

    dekh pāzeb har lai pe sitāre chauñke

    āsmānoñ pe farishtoñ ke vuzū TuuT ga.e

    aaj ma.asūm ḳhudāoñ ko bhī mehmāñ kar leñ

    aaj raat ġhanīmat hai charāġhāñ kar leñ

    raat kuchh bhiig chalī aur jamāhī aa.ī

    jhilmilātī huī sham.oñ ziyā kaañp ga.ī

    rakh de ye ātish-e-sayyāl ki phir aag lagī

    āḳhirī baar har ik dard darmāñ kar leñ

    aaj raat ġhanīmat hai charāġhāñ kar leñ

    kyā ġharaz vaqt ke māthe pe shikan hai ki nahīñ

    merī mahbūb kalā.ī meñ rasan hai ki nahīñ

    terā āñchal shahīdoñ kafan hai ki nahīñ

    har haqīqat ko usī ḳhvāb meñ ġhaltāñ kar leñ

    aaj raat ġhanīmat hai charāġhāñ kar leñ

    zindagi nach ki har lamha hai jannat-ba-kanar

    dekh ye lab hain ye aankhen ye gulabi ruKHsar

    phir na aaegi palaT kar teri duniya mein bahaar

    aaj ki raat ghanimat hai charaghan kar len

    ek angDai jo li khul gain kali zulfen

    phir mujhe khinch rahi hain ye ghaneri palken

    dekh haijaan se larzan hain ye aariz ki ragen

    aaj us jins-e-giran-bar ko arzan kar len

    aaj ki raat ghanimat hai charaghan kar len

    dekh wo honT hile hath uThe saz baje

    dekh pazeb ki har lai pe sitare chaunke

    aasmanon pe farishton ke wuzu TuT gae

    aaj masum KHudaon ko bhi mehman kar len

    aaj ki raat ghanimat hai charaghan kar len

    raat kuchh bhig chali aur jamahi aai

    jhilmilati hui shamon ki ziya kanp gai

    rakh de ye aatish-e-sayyal ki phir aag lagi

    aaKHiri bar har ek dard ka darman kar len

    aaj ki raat ghanimat hai charaghan kar len

    kya gharaz waqt ke mathe pe shikan hai ki nahin

    meri mahbub kalai mein rasan hai ki nahin

    tera aanchal hi shahidon ka kafan hai ki nahin

    har haqiqat ko usi KHwab mein ghaltan kar len

    aaj ki raat ghanimat hai charaghan kar len
