aa.iye shauq se bhauñchāl bapā kar diije

bazm-e-dil aap kī ḳhātir hī sajā rakkhī hai

aaiye shauq se bhaunchaal bapa kar dije

bazm-e-dil aap ki KHatir hi saja rakkhi hai

is vāste muhāl hai ham donoñ meñ nibāh

tū ḳhud-numā hai maiñ bhī riyā ke ḳhilāf huuñ

is waste muhaal hai hum donon mein nibah

tu KHud-numa hai main bhi riya ke KHilaf hun

mauzū'-e-guftugū to hai jinsī jamāliyāt

aur markaz-e-ḳhayāl tumhārā hī jism hai

mauzu'-e-guftugu to hai jinsi jamaliyat

aur markaz-e-KHayal tumhaara hi jism hai

roz miltā hai bulandī kā nayā ziina mujhe

roz taklīf ka.ī logoñ ko ho jaatī hai

roz milta hai bulandi ka naya zina mujhe

roz taklif kai logon ko ho jati hai

zindagī se milā nahīñ kuchh bhī

phir bhī ik aas hai musalsal hai

zindagi se mila nahin kuchh bhi

phir bhi ek aas hai musalsal hai
