koi KHushi na koi ranj mustaqil hoga

koī ḳhushī na koī rañj mustaqil hogā

fanā ke rañg se har rañg muttasil hogā

ajab hai ishq ajab-tar haiñ ḳhvāhisheñ is kī

kabhī kabhī to bichhaḌne talak ko dil hogā

badan meñ ho to gila kyā tamāsh-bīnī kā

yahāñ to roz tamāshā-o-āb-o-gil hogā

abhī to aur bhī chehre tumheñ pukāreñge

abhī vo aur bhī chehroñ meñ muntaqil hogā

ziyāñ mazīd hai asbāb DhūñDhte rahnā

huā hai jo vo na hone pe mushtamil hogā

tamām-rāt bhaTaktā phirā hai saḌkoñ par

huī hai sub.h abhī shahr muzmahil hogā

koi KHushi na koi ranj mustaqil hoga

fana ke rang se har rang muttasil hoga

ajab hai ishq ajab-tar hain KHwahishen is ki

kabhi kabhi to bichhaDne talak ko dil hoga

badan mein ho to gila kya tamash-bini ka

yahan to roz tamasha-o-ab-o-gil hoga

abhi to aur bhi chehre tumhein pukarenge

abhi wo aur bhi chehron mein muntaqil hoga

ziyan mazid hai asbab DhunDhte rahna

hua hai jo wo na hone pe mushtamil hoga

tamam-raat bhaTakta phira hai saDkon par

hui hai subh abhi shahr muzmahil hoga
