aaj ik aur baras biit gayā us ke baġhair
jis ke hote hue hote the zamāne mere
ḳhudī ko kar buland itnā ki har taqdīr se pahle
ḳhudā bande se ḳhud pūchhe batā terī razā kyā hai
KHudi ko kar buland itna ki har taqdir se pahle
KHuda bande se KHud puchhe bata teri raza kya hai
ham ko ma.alūm hai jannat kī haqīqat lekin
dil ke ḳhush rakhne ko 'ġhālib' ye ḳhayāl achchhā hai
hum ko malum hai jannat ki haqiqat lekin
dil ke KHush rakhne ko 'ghaalib' ye KHayal achchha hai
ham aah bhī karte haiñ to ho jaate haiñ badnām
vo qatl bhī karte haiñ to charchā nahīñ hotā
I do suffer slander, when I merely sigh
she gets away with murder, no mention of it nigh
hum aah bhi karte hain to ho jate hain badnam
wo qatl bhi karte hain to charcha nahin hota
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
ujāle apnī yādoñ ke hamāre saath rahne do
na jaane kis galī meñ zindagī kī shaam ho jaa.e
ujale apni yaadon ke hamare sath rahne do
na jaane kis gali mein zindagi ki sham ho jae
