aaj ik aur baras biit gayā us ke baġhair
jis ke hote hue hote the zamāne mere
kuchh usūloñ kā nasha thā kuchh muqaddas ḳhvāb the
har zamāne meñ shahādat ke yahī asbāb the
kuchh usulon ka nasha tha kuchh muqaddas KHwab the
har zamane mein shahadat ke yahi asbab the
is sādgī pe kaun na mar jaa.e ai ḳhudā
laḌte haiñ aur haath meñ talvār bhī nahīñ
is sadgi pe kaun na mar jae ai KHuda
laDte hain aur hath mein talwar bhi nahin
aur bhī dukh haiñ zamāne meñ mohabbat ke sivā
rāhateñ aur bhī haiñ vasl kī rāhat ke sivā
sorrows other than love's longing does this life provide
comforts other than a lover's union too abide
aur bhi dukh hain zamane mein mohabbat ke siwa
rahaten aur bhi hain wasl ki rahat ke siwa
chupke chupke raat din aañsū bahānā yaad hai
ham ko ab tak āshiqī kā vo zamānā yaad hai
chupke chupke raat din aansu bahana yaad hai
hum ko ab tak aashiqi ka wo zamana yaad hai
sadā aish daurāñ dikhātā nahīñ
gayā vaqt phir haath aatā nahīñ
sada aish dauran dikhata nahin
gaya waqt phir hath aata nahin
