tumhāre sañg-e-taġhāful kā kyuuñ kareñ shikva

is aa.ine kā muqaddar hī TūTnā hogā

tumhaare sang-e-taghaful ka kyun karen shikwa

is aaine ka muqaddar hi TuTna hoga

khaḌā huā huuñ sar-e-rāh muntazir kab se

ki koī guzre to ġham kā ye bojh uThvā de

khaDa hua hun sar-e-rah muntazir kab se

ki koi guzre to gham ka ye bojh uThwa de

sadā kise deñ 'na.īmī' kise dikhā.eñ zaḳhm

ab itnī raat ga.e kaun jāgtā hogā

sada kise den 'naimi' kise dikhaen zaKHm

ab itni raat gae kaun jagta hoga

maazī ke reg-zār pe rakhnā sambhal ke paañv

bachchoñ kā is meñ koī gharauñdā banā na ho

mazi ke reg-zar pe rakhna sambhal ke panw

bachchon ka is mein koi gharaunda bana na ho

mire ḳhulūs pe shak kī to koī vaj.h nahīñ

mire libās meñ ḳhanjar agar chhupā niklā

mere KHulus pe shak ki to koi wajh nahin

mere libas mein KHanjar agar chhupa nikla
