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
qālib ko apne chhoḌ ke maqlūb ho ga.e
kyā aur koī qalb hai is inqalāb meñ
qalib ko apne chhoD ke maqlub ho gae
kya aur koi qalb hai is inqalab mein
nahīñ khultā sabab tabassum kā
aaj kyā koī bosa deñge aap
nahin khulta sabab tabassum ka
aaj kya koi bosa denge aap
