dhuup niklī hai bārishoñ ke ba.ad

vo abhī ro ke muskurā.e haiñ

dhup nikli hai barishon ke baad

wo abhi ro ke muskurae hain

sub.h kā ḳhvāb umr bhar dekhā

aur phir niiñd aa ga.ī 'anjum'

subh ka KHwab umr bhar dekha

aur phir nind aa gai 'anjum'

niiñd kyuuñ TuuT ga.ī āḳhir-e-shab

kaun mere liye taḌpā hogā

nind kyun TuT gai aaKHir-e-shab

kaun mere liye taDpa hoga

dostī bandagī vafā-o-ḳhulūs

ham ye sham.a jalānā bhuul ga.e

dosti bandagi wafa-o-KHulus

hum ye shama jalana bhul gae

ḳhud-kushī karne meñ bhī nākām rah jaate haiñ ham

kaun amrit ghol detā hai hamāre zahr meñ

KHud-kushi karne mein bhi nakaam rah jate hain hum

kaun amrit ghol deta hai hamare zahr mein
