pata nahin baghal mein dil-e-dilbar-e-ma kuja ba-raft

paatā nahīñ baġhal meñ dil-e-dilbar-e-mā kujā ba-raft

kah do koī tabīb se jān-e-azīz-e-mā ba-raft

bhuul gayā ḳhushī se maiñ hifz-e-marātib-o-adab

aa jo gayā vo sāmne az tā-dil-e-duā ba-raft

kyuuñ hai Darātā nāsehā niist ’adū-e-mā kise

marne ke aage mar gayā barsar-e-mā qazā ba-raft

sharm-o-hayā nahīñ mujhe kHāna-ba-kHāna mī-ravam

'āshiq-e-be-nasīb huuñ bardare-ū gadā ba-raft

paatā nahīñ maiñ aap ko andar ḳhvesh gum-shuda

‘sahv’ kahāñ chalā gayā mahram-e-rāz-e-mā ba-raft

pata nahin baghal mein dil-e-dilbar-e-ma kuja ba-raft

kah do koi tabib se jaan-e-aziz-e-ma ba-raft

bhul gaya KHushi se main hifz-e-maraatib-o-adab

aa jo gaya wo samne az ta-dil-e-dua ba-raft

kyun hai Daraata naseha nist ’adu-e-ma kise

marne ke aage mar gaya barsar-e-ma qaza ba-raft

sharm-o-haya nahin mujhe kHana-ba-kHana mi-rawam

'ashiq-e-be-nasib hun bardare-u gada ba-raft

pata nahin main aap ko andar KHwesh gum-shuda

‘sahw’ kahan chala gaya mahram-e-raaz-e-ma ba-raft
