phir lutf-e-KHalish dene lagi yaad kisi ki

phir lutf-e-ḳhalish dene lagī yaad kisī kī

phir bhuul ga.ī yaad ko be-dād kisī kī

phir ranj-o-alam ko hai kisī kā ye ishāra

ujḌī huī bastī karo ābād kisī kī

phir ḳhat kā javāb ek vahī tanz kā misra'

majbūr hai kyuuñ fitrat-e-āzād kisī kī

phir de ke ḳhushī ham use nāshād kareñ kyuuñ

ġham hī se tabī'at hai agar shaad kisī kī

phir pand-o-nasīhat ke liye aane lage dost

vo dost jo karte nahīñ imdād kisī kī

phir shahr meñ charchā hai na.ī sang-zanī kā

aḳhbār meñ phir darj hai rūdād kisī kī

phir bāb-e-asar kā koī rasta nahīñ miltā

phir bhaTkī huī phirtī hai fariyād kisī kī

phir ḳhaak uḌāte hue phirte haiñ bagūle

phir dasht meñ miTTī huī barbād kisī kī

phir maiñ bhī karūñ kyuuñ na 'hafīz' is pe tasallut

jāgīr nahīñ tab-e-ḳhudā-dād kisī kī

phir lutf-e-KHalish dene lagi yaad kisi ki

phir bhul gai yaad ko be-dad kisi ki

phir ranj-o-alam ko hai kisi ka ye ishaara

ujDi hui basti karo aabaad kisi ki

phir KHat ka jawab ek wahi tanz ka misra'

majbur hai kyun fitrat-e-azad kisi ki

phir de ke KHushi hum use nashad karen kyun

gham hi se tabi'at hai agar shad kisi ki

phir pand-o-nasihat ke liye aane lage dost

wo dost jo karte nahin imdad kisi ki

phir shahr mein charcha hai nai sang-zani ka

aKHbar mein phir darj hai rudad kisi ki

phir bab-e-asar ka koi rasta nahin milta

phir bhaTki hui phirti hai fariyaad kisi ki

phir KHak uDate hue phirte hain bagule

phir dasht mein miTTi hui barbaad kisi ki

phir main bhi karun kyun na 'hafiz' is pe tasallut

jagir nahin tab-e-KHuda-dad kisi ki
