churā ke muTThī meñ dil ko chhupā.e baiThe haiñ

bahānā ye hai ki mehñdī lagā.e baiThe haiñ

chura ke muTThi mein dil ko chhupae baiThe hain

bahana ye hai ki mehndi lagae baiThe hain

kuchh arz-e-tamannā meñ shikva na sitam kā thā

maiñ ne to kahā kyā thā aur aap ne kyā jaanā

kuchh arz-e-tamanna mein shikwa na sitam ka tha

main ne to kaha kya tha aur aap ne kya jaana

jaan insāñ kī lene vāloñ meñ

ek hai maut dūsrā hai ishq

jaan insan ki lene walon mein

ek hai maut dusra hai ishq

kyā hamārī namāz kyā roza

baḳhsh dene ke sau bahāne haiñ

kya hamari namaz kya roza

baKHsh dene ke sau bahane hain

ġhairoñ ko bhalā samjhe aur mujh ko burā jaanā

samjhe bhī to kyā samjhe jaanā bhī to kyā jaanā

ghairon ko bhala samjhe aur mujh ko bura jaana

samjhe bhi to kya samjhe jaana bhi to kya jaana
