ġham se mansūb karūñ dard kā rishta de duuñ

zindagī aa tujhe jiine kā salīqa de duuñ

gham se mansub karun dard ka rishta de dun

zindagi aa tujhe jine ka saliqa de dun

ham ne dekhā hai zamāne kā badalnā lekin

un ke badle hue tevar nahīñ dekhe jaate

hum ne dekha hai zamane ka badalna lekin

un ke badle hue tewar nahin dekhe jate

laa.ī hai kis maqām pe ye zindagī mujhe

mahsūs ho rahī hai ḳhud apnī kamī mujhe

lai hai kis maqam pe ye zindagi mujhe

mahsus ho rahi hai KHud apni kami mujhe

nasheman hī ke luT jaane kā ġham hotā to kyā ġham thā

yahāñ to bechne vaale ne gulshan bech Daalā hai

nasheman hi ke luT jaane ka gham hota to kya gham tha

yahan to bechne wale ne gulshan bech Dala hai

kyā isī vāste sīñchā thā lahū se apne

jab sañvar jaa.e chaman aag lagā dī jaa.e

kya isi waste sincha tha lahu se apne

jab sanwar jae chaman aag laga di jae
