aaj ik aur baras biit gayā us ke baġhair
jis ke hote hue hote the zamāne mere
sutūn-e-dār pe rakhte chalo saroñ ke charāġh
jahāñ talak ye sitam kī siyāh raat chale
sutun-e-dar pe rakhte chalo saron ke charagh
jahan talak ye sitam ki siyah raat chale
sadā aish daurāñ dikhātā nahīñ
gayā vaqt phir haath aatā nahīñ
sada aish dauran dikhata nahin
gaya waqt phir hath aata nahin
koī pāband-e-mohabbat hī batā saktā hai
ek dīvāne kā zanjīr se rishta kyā hai
koi paband-e-mohabbat hi bata sakta hai
ek diwane ka zanjir se rishta kya hai
rāh-e-dūr-e-ishq meñ rotā hai kyā
aage aage dekhiye hotā hai kyā
rah-e-dur-e-ishq mein rota hai kya
aage aage dekhiye hota hai kya
tum muḳhātib bhī ho qarīb bhī ho
tum ko dekheñ ki tum se baat kareñ
close to me you are there
should I speak or should I stare/see
tum muKHatib bhi ho qarib bhi ho
tum ko dekhen ki tum se baat karen
