ġhair ulfat kā raaz kyā jaane
lutf-e-nāz-o-niyāz kyā jaane

nīm-jānoñ pe kyā guzartī hai
nargis-e-nīm-bāz kyā jaane

mere tūl-e-shab-e-judā.ī ko
terī zulf-e-darāz kyā jaane

pāk-bāzān-e-mai-kada kā maqām
jo na ho pāk-bāz kyā jaane

dil hai us parde meñ koī varna
sham.a soz o gudāz kyā jaane

ham jo mastī meñ girte paḌte haiñ
zāhid aisī namāz kyā jaane

rāh-e-ulfat na jis ne tai kī ho
vo nasheb-o-farāz kyā jaane

jis ke dil meñ na soz ho vo 'jalīl'
kaif-e-āvāz-e-sāz kyā jaane

ghair ulfat ka raaz kya jaane
lutf-e-naz-o-niyaz kya jaane

nim-jaanon pe kya guzarti hai
nargis-e-nim-baz kya jaane

mere tul-e-shab-e-judai ko
teri zulf-e-daraaz kya jaane

pak-bazan-e-mai-kada ka maqam
jo na ho pak-baz kya jaane

dil hai us parde mein koi warna
shama soz o gudaz kya jaane

hum jo masti mein girte paDte hain
zahid aisi namaz kya jaane

rah-e-ulfat na jis ne tai ki ho
wo nasheb-o-faraaz kya jaane

jis ke dil mein na soz ho wo 'jalil'
kaif-e-awaz-e-saz kya jaane
