aaj ik aur baras biit gayā us ke baġhair
jis ke hote hue hote the zamāne mere
jalāne vaale jalāte hī haiñ charāġh āḳhir
ye kyā kahā ki havā tez hai zamāne kī
jalane wale jalate hi hain charagh aaKHir
ye kya kaha ki hawa tez hai zamane ki
ye kah ke dil ne mire hausle baḌhā.e haiñ
ġhamoñ kī dhuup ke aage ḳhushī ke saa.e haiñ
ye kah ke dil ne mere hausle baDhae hain
ghamon ki dhup ke aage KHushi ke sae hain
terī sūrat se kisī kī nahīñ miltī sūrat
ham jahāñ meñ tirī tasvīr liye phirte haiñ
teri surat se kisi ki nahin milti surat
hum jahan mein teri taswir liye phirte hain
aa.ina dekh ke kahte haiñ sañvarne vaale
aaj be-maut mareñge mire marne vaale
on seeing her own reflection she is moved to say
ere their time, my paramours shall perish this day
aaina dekh ke kahte hain sanwarne wale
aaj be-maut marenge mere marne wale
ghar se masjid hai bahut duur chalo yuuñ kar leñ
kisī rote hue bachche ko hañsāyā jaa.e
the mosques too far so for a while
some weeping child, let us make smile
ghar se masjid hai bahut dur chalo yun kar len
kisi rote hue bachche ko hansaya jae
