gar na andoh-e-shab-e-furqat bayan ho jaega

gar na andoh-e-shab-e-furqat bayāñ ho jā.egā

be-takalluf dāġh-e-mah mohr-e-dahāñ ho jā.egā

zohra gar aisā hī shām-e-hijr meñ hotā hai aab

partav-e-mahtāb sail-e-ḳhānumāñ ho jā.egā

le to luuñ sote meñ us ke paañv kā bosa magar

aisī bātoñ se vo kāfir bad-gumāñ ho jā.egā

dil ko ham sarf-e-vafā samjhe the kyā ma.alūm thā

ya.anī ye pahle hī nazr-e-imtihāñ ho jā.egā

sab ke dil meñ hai jagah terī jo tū raazī huā

mujh pe goyā ik zamāna mehrbāñ ho jā.egā

gar nigāh-e-garm farmātī rahī tālīm-e-zabt

sho.ala ḳhas meñ jaise ḳhuuñ rag meñ nihāñ ho jā.egā

baaġh meñ mujh ko na le jā varna mere haal par

har gul-e-tar ek chashm-e-ḳhūñ-fishāñ ho jā.egā

vaa.e! gar merā tirā insāf mahshar meñ na ho

ab talak to ye tavaqqo.a hai ki vaañ ho jā.egā

fā.eda kyā soch āḳhir tū bhī daanā hai 'asad'

dostī nādāñ kī hai jī kā ziyāñ ho jā.egā

gar na andoh-e-shab-e-furqat bayan ho jaega

be-takalluf dagh-e-mah mohr-e-dahan ho jaega

zohra gar aisa hi sham-e-hijr mein hota hai aab

partaw-e-mahtab sail-e-KHanuman ho jaega

le to lun sote mein us ke panw ka bosa magar

aisi baaton se wo kafir bad-guman ho jaega

dil ko hum sarf-e-wafa samjhe the kya malum tha

yani ye pahle hi nazr-e-imtihan ho jaega

sab ke dil mein hai jagah teri jo tu raazi hua

mujh pe goya ek zamana mehrban ho jaega

gar nigah-e-garm farmati rahi talim-e-zabt

shoala KHas mein jaise KHun rag mein nihan ho jaega

bagh mein mujh ko na le ja warna mere haal par

har gul-e-tar ek chashm-e-KHun-fishan ho jaega

wae! gar mera tera insaf mahshar mein na ho

ab talak to ye tawaqqoa hai ki wan ho jaega

faeda kya soch aaKHir tu bhi dana hai 'asad'

dosti nadan ki hai ji ka ziyan ho jaega
