hijr ki raat yaad aati hai

hijr kī raat yaad aatī hai

phir vahī baat yaad aatī hai

tum ne chheḌā to kuchh khule ham bhī

baat par baat yaad aatī hai

tum the aur ham the chāñd niklā thā

haa.e vo raat yaad aatī hai

sub.h ke vaqt zarre zarre kī

vo munājāt yaad aatī hai

haa.e kyā chiiz thī javānī bhī

ab to din-rāt yaad aatī hai

mai se tauba to kī 'azīz' magar

aksar auqāt yaad aatī hai

hijr ki raat yaad aati hai

phir wahi baat yaad aati hai

tum ne chheDa to kuchh khule hum bhi

baat par baat yaad aati hai

tum the aur hum the chand nikla tha

hae wo raat yaad aati hai

subh ke waqt zarre zarre ki

wo munajat yaad aati hai

hae kya chiz thi jawani bhi

ab to din-raat yaad aati hai

mai se tauba to ki 'aziz' magar

aksar auqat yaad aati hai
