raat bhar furqat ke saa.e dil ko dahlāte rahe
zehn meñ kyā kyā ḳhayāl aate rahe jaate rahe

saiñkaḌoñ dilkash bahāreñ thiiñ hamārī muntazir
ham tirī ḳhvāhish meñ lekin Thokareñ khāte rahe

umr bhar dekhā na apne chāk-e-dāman kī taraf
bas tirī uljhī huī zulfoñ ko suljhāte rahe

jin kī ḳhātir pī ga.e rusvā.iyoñ kā zahr bhī
vo bharī mahfil meñ ham par tanz farmāte rahe

terī ḳhātir ishq meñ barbād honā thā hue
ham na maane log ham ko laakh samjhāte rahe

raat bhar furqat ke sae dil ko dahlate rahe
zehn mein kya kya KHayal aate rahe jate rahe

sainkaDon dilkash bahaaren thin hamari muntazir
hum teri KHwahish mein lekin Thokaren khate rahe

umr bhar dekha na apne chaak-e-daman ki taraf
bas teri uljhi hui zulfon ko suljhate rahe

jin ki KHatir pi gae ruswaiyon ka zahr bhi
wo bhari mahfil mein hum par tanz farmate rahe

teri KHatir ishq mein barbaad hona tha hue
hum na mane log hum ko lakh samjhate rahe
