ulfat ye chhupaen hum kisi ki

ulfat ye chhupā.eñ ham kisī kī

dil se bhī kaheñ na apnī jī kī

jaane vo kyā kisī kī jī kī

jis ko ulfat na ho kisī kī

ḳhvāhish na bar aa.ī apnī jī kī

ham ne kis kis kī dostī kī

achchhī nahīñ sharh āshiqī kī

pūchho na ajī kisī kī jī kī

ye ro.e ki naama bah ke pahuñchā

ashkoñ ne hamāre qāsidī kī

surḳhī magar us ke lab kī dekhī

rañgat hai safed aarsī kī

āshiq the vo ham ki ba.ad apne

miTTī hī ḳharāb āshiqī kī

ai abr-e-shab-e-firāq sach kah

rote kaTtī hai shab kisī kī

dil zulf-e-rasā talak to pahuñchā

itnī baḳhtoñ ne rahbarī kī

bijlī chamkī to abr royā

yaad aa ga.ī kyā hañsī kisī kī

ham kisī kī galī kī raah bhūle

jo ḳhizr ne bhī na rahbarī kī

dil ko mire ḳhaak meñ milāyā

dilbar ne ḳhuub dilbarī kī

sozish mire dil kī dekh ai maah

kar sair is burj-e-ātishī kī

vo tifl-e-nusairī aa.e shāyad

qasmeñ duuñ murtazā-alī kī

gardan-zadanī thī sham.a-e-sarkash

kyuuñ us kī galī se ham-sarī kī

bas rakh diyā ḳhat meñ barg-e-sausan

jab likh na sake sifat misī kī

Thukrā ke chalī jabīñ ko mere

qismat ke likhe ne yāvarī kī

ye rashk hai muñh jo yaar dekhe

sūrat dekhūñ na aarsī kī

bhūlā thā maiñ rāh-e-kū-e-qātil

tū ne ai maut rahbarī kī

us ke gardan talak na pahuñchā

ai dast-e-darāz kotahī kī

dil ko paalā baġhal meñ tū ne

goyā dushman se dostī kī

ulfat ye chhupaen hum kisi ki

dil se bhi kahen na apni ji ki

jaane wo kya kisi ki ji ki

jis ko ulfat na ho kisi ki

KHwahish na bar aai apni ji ki

hum ne kis kis ki dosti ki

achchhi nahin sharh aashiqi ki

puchho na aji kisi ki ji ki

ye roe ki nama bah ke pahuncha

ashkon ne hamare qasidi ki

surKHi magar us ke lab ki dekhi

rangat hai safed aarsi ki

aashiq the wo hum ki baad apne

miTTi hi KHarab aashiqi ki

ai abr-e-shab-e-firaq sach kah

rote kaTti hai shab kisi ki

dil zulf-e-rasa talak to pahuncha

itni baKHton ne rahbari ki

bijli chamki to abr roya

yaad aa gai kya hansi kisi ki

hum kisi ki gali ki rah bhule

jo KHizr ne bhi na rahbari ki

dil ko mere KHak mein milaya

dilbar ne KHub dilbari ki

sozish mere dil ki dekh ai mah

kar sair is burj-e-atishi ki

wo tifl-e-nusairi aae shayad

qasmen dun murtaza-ali ki

gardan-zadani thi shama-e-sarkash

kyun us ki gali se ham-sari ki

bas rakh diya KHat mein barg-e-sausan

jab likh na sake sifat misi ki

Thukra ke chali jabin ko mere

qismat ke likhe ne yawari ki

ye rashk hai munh jo yar dekhe

surat dekhun na aarsi ki

bhula tha main rah-e-ku-e-qatil

tu ne ai maut rahbari ki

us ke gardan talak na pahuncha

ai dast-e-daraaz kotahi ki

dil ko pala baghal mein tu ne

goya dushman se dosti ki
