dil kā darvāza khulā thā koī Tiktā kaise

jo bhī aatā thā vo jaane ke liye aatā thā

dil ka darwaza khula tha koi Tikta kaise

jo bhi aata tha wo jaane ke liye aata tha

kaun kāfir hai jo khelegā diyānat se yahāñ

jab mirī jiit hai vābasta tirī haar ke saath

kaun kafir hai jo khelega diyanat se yahan

jab meri jit hai wabasta teri haar ke sath

maiñ jis meñ dafn huuñ ik chaltī phirtī qabr hai ye

janam nahīñ thā vo dar-asl mar gayā thā maiñ

main jis mein dafn hun ek chalti phirti qabr hai ye

janam nahin tha wo dar-asl mar gaya tha main

tirī rū-numā.ī kī raat bhī maiñ jahāñ khaḌā thā khaḌā rahā

ki hujūm-e-shahr ko chiir kar mujhe rāsta nahīñ chāhiye

teri ru-numai ki raat bhi main jahan khaDa tha khaDa raha

ki hujum-e-shahr ko chir kar mujhe rasta nahin chahiye

vo shahr bhar ko fasāne sunātā phirtā hai

hamāre sāmne sachchā bane to baat bane

wo shahr bhar ko fasane sunata phirta hai

hamare samne sachcha bane to baat bane
