jo baat dil meñ thī us se nahīñ kahī ham ne
vafā ke naam se vo bhī fareb khā jaatā
jo baat dil mein thi us se nahin kahi hum ne
wafa ke nam se wo bhi fareb kha jata

ḳhudā kā shukr hai tū ne bhī maan lī mirī baat
rafū purāne dukhoñ par nahīñ kiyā jaatā
KHuda ka shukr hai tu ne bhi man li meri baat
rafu purane dukhon par nahin kiya jata
vo log jin se tirī bazm meñ the hañgāme
ga.e to kyā tirī bazm-e-ḳhayāl se bhī ga.e
wo log jin se teri bazm mein the hangame
gae to kya teri bazm-e-KHayal se bhi gae
kah sakte to ahvāl-e-jahāñ tum se hī kahte
tum se to kisī baat kā pardā bhī nahīñ thā
kah sakte to ahwal-e-jahan tum se hi kahte
tum se to kisi baat ka parda bhi nahin tha
baiTho jī kā bojh utāreñ donoñ vaqt yahīñ milte haiñ
duur duur se aane vaale raste kahīñ kahīñ milte haiñ
baiTho ji ka bojh utaren donon waqt yahin milte hain
dur dur se aane wale raste kahin kahin milte hain
shahr jin ke naam se zinda thā vo sab uTh ga.e
ik ishāre se talab kartā hai vīrāna mujhe
shahr jin ke nam se zinda tha wo sab uTh gae
ek ishaare se talab karta hai virana mujhe
diloñ kī uqda-kushā.ī kā vaqt hai ki nahīñ
ye aadmī kī ḳhudā.ī kā vaqt hai ki nahīñ
dilon ki uqda-kushai ka waqt hai ki nahin
ye aadmi ki KHudai ka waqt hai ki nahin
