ek patthar nahīñ to phir kyā hai

dil agar ġham se āshnā na huā

ek patthar nahin to phir kya hai

dil agar gham se aashna na hua

dil kaT ke rah gaye na bahā buuñd bhar lahū

lafzo tumhārī dhaar kahāñ ḳhanjaroñ meñ hai

dil kaT ke rah gaye na baha bund bhar lahu

lafzo tumhaari dhaar kahan KHanjaron mein hai

aur 'uryāñ sī ho ga.ī duniyā

jab se aayā libās kā mausam

aur 'uryan si ho gai duniya

jab se aaya libas ka mausam

ik hayāt-e-nau chhupī hai karbalā kī raah meñ

karbalā rāh-e-'amal hai manzil-e-mātam nahīñ

ek hayat-e-nau chhupi hai karbala ki rah mein

karbala rah-e-'amal hai manzil-e-matam nahin

pyaas baaqī thī pyaas baaqī hai

sang se ābshār tak sab jhuuT

pyas baqi thi pyas baqi hai

sang se aabshaar tak sab jhuT
