taskin-e-dil-e-mahzun na hui wo sai-e-karam farma bhi gae

taskīn-e-dil-e-mahzūñ na huī vo sa.i-e-karam farmā bhī ga.e

is sa.i-e-karam ko kyā kahiye bahlā bhī ga.e taḌpā bhī ga.e

ham arz-e-vafā bhī kar na sake kuchh kah na sake kuchh sun na sake

yaañ ham ne zabāñ hī kholī thī vaañ aañkh jhukī sharmā bhī ga.e

āshuftagī-e-vahshat kī qasam hairat kī qasam hasrat kī qasam

ab aap kaheñ kuchh yā na kaheñ ham rāz-e-tabassum pā bhī ga.e

rūdād-e-ġham-e-ulfat un se ham kyā kahte kyūñkar kahte

ik harf na niklā hoñToñ se aur aañkh meñ aañsū aa bhī ga.e

arbāb-e-junūñ par furqat meñ ab kyā kahiye kyā kyā guzrī

aa.e the savād-e-ulfat meñ kuchh kho bhī ga.e kuchh pā bhī ga.e

ye rañg-e-bahār-e-ālam hai kyuuñ fikr hai tujh ko ai saaqī

mahfil to tirī suunī na huī kuchh uTh bhī ga.e kuchh aa bhī ga.e

yan hum ne zaban hi kholi thi wan aankh jhuki sharma bhi gae

aashuftagi-e-wahshat ki qasam hairat ki qasam hasrat ki qasam

ab aap kahen kuchh ya na kahen hum raaz-e-tabassum pa bhi gae

rudad-e-gham-e-ulfat un se hum kya kahte kyunkar kahte

ek harf na nikla honTon se aur aankh mein aansu aa bhi gae
