jhunjhlae hain lajae hain phir muskurae hain
jhunjhlā.e haiñ lajā.e haiñ phir muskurā.e haiñ
kis ehtimām se unheñ ham yaad aa.e haiñ
dair-o-haram ke habs-kadoñ ke satā.e haiñ
ham aaj mai-kade kī havā khāne aa.e haiñ
ab jā ke aah karne ke ādāb aa.e haiñ
duniyā samajh rahī hai ki ham muskurā.e haiñ
guzre haiñ mai-kade se jo tauba ke ba.ad ham
kuchh duur ādatan bhī qadam laḌkhaḌā.e haiñ
ai josh-e-girya dekh na karnā ḳhajil mujhe
āñkheñ mirī zarūr haiñ aañsū parā.e haiñ
ai maut ai bahisht-e-sukūñ aa ḳhush-āmdīd
ham zindagī meñ pahle pahal muskurā.e haiñ
jitnī bhī mai-kade meñ hai saaqī pilā de aaj
ham tishna-kām zohd ke sahrā se aa.e haiñ
insān jīte-jī kareñ tauba ḳhatāoñ se
majbūriyoñ ne kitne farishte banā.e haiñ
samjhāte qabl-e-ishq to mumkin thā bantī baat
nāseh ġharīb ab hameñ samjhāne aa.e haiñ
ka.abe meñ ḳhairiyat to hai sab hazrat-e-'ḳhumār'
ye dair hai janāb yahāñ kaise aa.e haiñ
jhunjhlae hain lajae hain phir muskurae hain
kis ehtimam se unhen hum yaad aae hain
dair-o-haram ke habs-kadon ke satae hain
hum aaj mai-kade ki hawa khane aae hain
ab ja ke aah karne ke aadab aae hain
duniya samajh rahi hai ki hum muskurae hain
guzre hain mai-kade se jo tauba ke baad hum
kuchh dur aadatan bhi qadam laDkhaDae hain
ai josh-e-girya dekh na karna KHajil mujhe
aankhen meri zarur hain aansu parae hain
ai maut ai bahisht-e-sukun aa KHush-amdid
hum zindagi mein pahle pahal muskurae hain
jitni bhi mai-kade mein hai saqi pila de aaj
hum tishna-kaam zohd ke sahra se aae hain
insan jite-ji karen tauba KHataon se
majburiyon ne kitne farishte banae hain
samjhate qabl-e-ishq to mumkin tha banti baat
naseh gharib ab hamein samjhane aae hain
kabe mein KHairiyat to hai sab hazrat-e-'KHumar'
ye dair hai janab yahan kaise aae hain
