ḳhushī ke phuul khile the tumhāre saath kabhī

phir is ke ba.ad na aayā bahār kā mausam

KHushi ke phul khile the tumhaare sath kabhi

phir is ke baad na aaya bahaar ka mausam

shabnam ne ro ke jī zarā halkā to kar liyā

ġham us kā pūchhiye jo na aañsū bahā sake

shabnam ne ro ke ji zara halka to kar liya

gham us ka puchhiye jo na aansu baha sake

sau baar aa.ī hoñToñ pe jhūTī hañsī magar

ik baar bhī na dil se kabhī muskurā sake

sau bar aai honTon pe jhuTi hansi magar

ek bar bhi na dil se kabhi muskura sake

kaTegī kaise gul-e-nau kī zindagī yā-rab

ki is ġharīb kā ḳhānoñ meñ ghar abhī se hai

kaTegi kaise gul-e-nau ki zindagi ya-rab

ki is gharib ka KHanon mein ghar abhi se hai

bahut ummīd thī manzil pe jā kar chain pā.eñge

magar manzil pe jab pahuñche to nazm-e-kārvāñ badlā

bahut ummid thi manzil pe ja kar chain paenge

magar manzil pe jab pahunche to nazm-e-karwan badla
