shahr-e-zulmat ko sabaat nahin
ai nizām-e-kohan ke farzando
ai shab-e-tār ke jigar-bando
ye shab-e-tār jāvedāñ to nahīñ
ye shab-e-tār jaane vaalī hai
tā-ba-kai tīrgī ke afsāne
sub.h-e-nau muskurāne vaalī hai
ai shab-e-tār ke jigar-gosho
ai sahr-dushmano sitam-gosho
sub.h kā āftāb chamkegā
TuuT jā.egā jahl kā jaadū
phail jā.egī in dayāroñ meñ
ilm-o-dānish kī raushnī har-sū
ai shab-e-tār ke nigahbāno
sham-e-ahd-e-ziyāñ ke parvāno
shahr-e-zulmāt ke sanā-ḳhvāno
shahr-e-zulmāt ko sabāt nahīñ
aur kuchh der sub.h par hañs lo
aur kuchh der koī baat nahīñ
ai nizam-e-kohan ke farzando
ai shab-e-tar ke jigar-bando
ye shab-e-tar jawedan to nahin
ye shab-e-tar jaane wali hai
ta-ba-kai tirgi ke afsane
subh-e-nau muskurane wali hai
ai shab-e-tar ke jigar-gosho
ai sahr-dushmano sitam-gosho
subh ka aaftab chamkega
TuT jaega jahl ka jadu
phail jaegi in dayaron mein
ilm-o-danish ki raushni har-su
ai shab-e-tar ke nigahbano
sham-e-ahd-e-ziyan ke parwano
shahr-e-zulmat ke sana-KHwano
shahr-e-zulmat ko sabaat nahin
aur kuchh der subh par hans lo
aur kuchh der koi baat nahin
