bosa-e-ruḳhsār par takrār rahne dījiye

lījiye yā dījiye inkār rahne dījiye

bosa-e-ruKHsar par takrar rahne dijiye

lijiye ya dijiye inkar rahne dijiye

baiTh jaatā huuñ jahāñ chhāñv ghanī hotī hai

haa.e kyā chiiz ġharīb-ul-vatanī hotī hai

baiTh jata hun jahan chhanw ghani hoti hai

hae kya chiz gharib-ul-watani hoti hai

tandurustī se to behtar thī mirī bīmārī

vo kabhī pūchh to lete the ki haal achchhā hai

tandurusti se to behtar thi meri bimari

wo kabhi puchh to lete the ki haal achchha hai

hasīnoñ se faqat sāhib-salāmat duur kī achchhī

na un kī dostī achchhī na un kī dushmanī achchhī

hasinon se faqat sahib-salamat dur ki achchhi

na un ki dosti achchhi na un ki dushmani achchhi

ab mujhe māneñ na māneñ ai 'hafīz'

mānte haiñ sab mire ustād ko

ab mujhe manen na manen ai 'hafiz'

mante hain sab mere ustad ko
