aaj ik aur baras biit gayā us ke baġhair
jis ke hote hue hote the zamāne mere
1864 - 1916 | Delhi, India
falak pe chāñd sitāre nikalte haiñ har shab
sitam yahī hai nikaltā nahīñ hamārā chāñd
falak pe chand sitare nikalte hain har shab
sitam yahi hai nikalta nahin hamara chand
ham ko bharam ne bahr-e-tavahhum banā diyā
dariyā samajh ke kuud paḌe ham sarāb meñ
hum ko bharam ne bahr-e-tawahhum bana diya
dariya samajh ke kud paDe hum sarab mein
vo maah jalva dikhā kar hameñ huā rū-posh
ye aarzū hai ki nikle kahīñ dobārā chāñd
wo mah jalwa dikha kar hamein hua ru-posh
ye aarzu hai ki nikle kahin dobara chand
