man-o-tu ka hijab uThne na de ai jaan-e-yaktai

man-o-tū kā hijāb uThne na de ai jān-e-yaktā.ī

kahīñ aisā na ho ban jā.ūñ ḳhud apnā tamannā.ī

vahī maiñ huuñ vahī hai tere ġham kī kār-farmā.ī

kabhī tanhā.ī meñ mahfil kabhī mahfil meñ tanhā.ī

ḳhalish-añgez hai vo ālam-e-jazb-o-gurez ab tak

tirī achchhī burī har baat yuuñ to mujh ko yaad aa.ī

qusūr-e-zarf samjhūñ yā sho.ūr-e-lazzat-andozī

tire lutf-o-karam meñ tishnagī hī tishnagī paa.ī

na chhoḌā dāman-e-hosh-o-ḳhirad dil ne mohabbat meñ

sazā-e-dil hisār-e-āgahī kī qaid-e-tanhā.ī

man-o-tu ka hijab uThne na de ai jaan-e-yaktai

kahin aisa na ho ban jaun KHud apna tamannai

wahi main hun wahi hai tere gham ki kar-farmai

kabhi tanhai mein mahfil kabhi mahfil mein tanhai

KHalish-angez hai wo aalam-e-jazb-o-gurez ab tak

teri achchhi buri har baat yun to mujh ko yaad aai

qusur-e-zarf samjhun ya shour-e-lazzat-andozi

tere lutf-o-karam mein tishnagi hi tishnagi pai

na chhoDa daman-e-hosh-o-KHirad dil ne mohabbat mein

saza-e-dil hisar-e-agahi ki qaid-e-tanhai
