aaj ik aur baras biit gayā us ke baġhair
jis ke hote hue hote the zamāne mere
vo aks ban ke mirī chashm-e-tar meñ rahtā hai
ajiib shaḳhs hai paanī ke ghar meñ rahtā hai
wo aks ban ke meri chashm-e-tar mein rahta hai
ajib shaKHs hai pani ke ghar mein rahta hai
ham se kyā ho sakā mohabbat meñ
ḳhair tum ne to bevafā.ī kī
hum se kya ho saka mohabbat mein
KHair tum ne to bewafai ki
koī kyuuñ kisī kā lubhā.e dil koī kyā kisī se lagā.e dil
vo jo bechte the davā-e-dil vo dukān apnī baḌhā ga.e
koi kyun kisi ka lubhae dil koi kya kisi se lagae dil
wo jo bechte the dawa-e-dil wo dukan apni baDha gae
apne chehre se jo zāhir hai chhupā.eñ kaise
terī marzī ke mutābiq nazar aa.eñ kaise
how do I hide the obvious, which from my face is clear
as you wish me to be seen, how do I thus appear
apne chehre se jo zahir hai chhupaen kaise
teri marzi ke mutabiq nazar aaen kaise
āñkheñ khulīñ to jaag uThīñ hasrateñ tamām
us ko bhī kho diyā jise paayā thā ḳhvāb meñ
as my eyes did ope my yearnings did rebound
for I lost the person who in my dreams I found
aankhen khulin to jag uThin hasraten tamam
us ko bhi kho diya jise paya tha KHwab mein
