saaya agar nasīb ho dīvār-e-yār kā
kyā martaba buland ho apne mazār kā

vo dasht-e-haulnāk vo hubb-e-vatan kā josh
phir phir ke dekhnā vo kisī be-dayār kā

lau de rahī hai shaam se aaj āh-e-ātishīñ
shola bhaḌak rahā hai dil-e-dāġhdār kā

tasvīr-e-naza.a dekhnā chāho to dekh lo
rah rah ke jhilmilānā charāġh-e-mazār kā

par taulne lage phir asīrān-e-bad-nasīb
shāyad qarīb aa gayā mausam bahār kā

mū-e-safed kāñpte haath aur jām-e-mai
dikhlā rahe haiñ rañg ḳhizāñ meñ bahār kā

añgḌā.iyoñ ke saath kahīñ dam nikal na jaa.e
āsāñ nahīñ hai ranj uThānā ḳhumār kā

saaqī girā na dījiyo ye jām-e-āḳhirī
dil TuuT jā.egā kisī ummīd-vār kā

mastoñ kī rūheñ bhaTkeñgī achchhā nahīñ hai ab
ghir-ghir ke aanā qabroñ par abr-e-bahār kā

dekho to apne vahshiyoñ kī jāma-zebīyāñ
allāh re husn pairahan-e-tār-tār kā

jurm-e-guzishta afv kun o mājrā mapurs
maarā huā huuñ is dil-e-be-iḳhtiyār kā

duniyā se 'yās' jaane ko jī chāhtā nahīñ
allāh re husn gulshan-e-nā-pā.edār kā

saya agar nasib ho diwar-e-yar ka
kya martaba buland ho apne mazar ka

wo dasht-e-haulnak wo hubb-e-watan ka josh
phir phir ke dekhna wo kisi be-dayar ka

lau de rahi hai sham se aaj aah-e-atishin
shola bhaDak raha hai dil-e-daghdar ka

taswir-e-naza dekhna chaho to dekh lo
rah rah ke jhilmilana charagh-e-mazar ka

par taulne lage phir asiran-e-bad-nasib
shayad qarib aa gaya mausam bahaar ka

mu-e-safed kanpte hath aur jam-e-mai
dikhla rahe hain rang KHizan mein bahaar ka

angDaiyon ke sath kahin dam nikal na jae
aasan nahin hai ranj uThana KHumar ka

saqi gira na dijiyo ye jam-e-aKHiri
dil TuT jaega kisi ummid-war ka

maston ki ruhen bhaTkengi achchha nahin hai ab
ghir-ghir ke aana qabron par abr-e-bahaar ka

dekho to apne wahshiyon ki jama-zebiyan
allah re husn pairahan-e-tar-tar ka

jurm-e-guzishta afw kun o majra mapurs
mara hua hun is dil-e-be-iKHtiyar ka

duniya se 'yas' jaane ko ji chahta nahin
allah re husn gulshan-e-na-paedar ka
