yā to jo nā-fahm haiñ vo bolte haiñ in dinoñ

yā jinheñ ḳhāmosh rahne kī sazā ma.alūm hai

ya to jo na-fahm hain wo bolte hain in dinon

tere firaq mein marna hi kya zaruri hai

aap idhar aa.e udhar diin aur īmān ga.e

iid kā chāñd nazar aayā to ramzān ga.e

aap idhar aae udhar din aur iman gae

id ka chand nazar aaya to ramzan gae

mire hālāt ko bas yuuñ samajh lo

parinde par shajar rakkhā huā hai

mere haalat ko bas yun samajh lo

parinde par shajar rakkha hua hai

qalam meñ zor jitnā hai judā.ī kī badaulat hai

milan ke ba.ad likhne vaale likhnā chhoḌ dete haiñ

qalam mein zor jitna hai judai ki badaulat hai

milan ke baad likhne wale likhna chhoD dete hain
