dil ne har daur meñ duniyā se baġhāvat kī hai

dil se tum rasm-o-rivāyāt kī bāteñ na karo

dil ne har daur mein duniya se baghawat ki hai

dil se tum rasm-o-riwayat ki baaten na karo

alfāz madah-ḳhvāñ the qalam the bike hue

kaise tarāsh lete koī shāh-kār ham

alfaz madah-KHwan the qalam the bike hue

kaise tarash lete koi shah-kar hum

logoñ ko apnī fikr hai lekin mujhe nadīm

bazm-e-hayāt-o-nazm-e-gulistāñ kī fikr hai

logon ko apni fikr hai lekin mujhe nadim

bazm-e-hayat-o-nazm-e-gulistan ki fikr hai

vaqt mohlat na degā phir tum ko

tiir jis dam kamān se niklā

waqt mohlat na dega phir tum ko

tir jis dam kaman se nikla

ham-nafas ḳhvāb-e-junūñ kī koī ta.abīr na dekh

raqs karnā hai to phir paañv kī zanjīr na dekh

ham-nafas KHwab-e-junun ki koi tabir na dekh

raqs karna hai to phir panw ki zanjir na dekh
