firāq-e-yār ne bechain mujhko raat bhar rakkhā

firāq-e-yār ne bechain mujh ko raat bhar rakkhā

kabhī takiya idhar rakkhā kabhī takiya idhar rakkhā

shikast-e-dil kā baaqī ham ne ġhurbat meñ asar rakhā

likhā ahl-e-vatan ko ḳhat to ik gosha katar rakkhā

barābar ā.īne ke bhī na samjhe qadr vo dil kī

ise zer-e-qadam rakkhā use pesh-e-nazar rakkhā

miTā.e dīda-o-dil donoñ mere ashk-e-ḳhūnīñ ne

ajab ye tifl abtar thā na ghar rakkhā na dar rakkhā

tumhāre sañg-e-dar kā ek TukḌā bhī jo haath aayā

aziiz aisā kiyā mar kar use chhātī pe dhar rakkhā

jināñ meñ saath apne kyuuñ na le jā.ūñgā nāseh ko

sulūk aisā hī mere saath hai hazrat ne kar rakkhā

na kī kis ne sifārish merī vaqt-e-qatl qātil se

kamāñ ne haath joḌe teġh ne qadmoñ pe sar rakkhā

ġhazab barse vo mere aate hī ma.alūm hotā hai

jagah ḳhālī jo paa.ī yaar ko ġhairoñ ne bhar rakkhā

baḌā ehsāñ hai mere sar pe us kī laġhzish-e-pā kā

ki is ne be-tahāshā haath mere dosh par rakkhā

zamīñ meñ dāna-e-gandum sadaf meñ ham hue gauhar

hamāre ijz ne har ma.arka meñ ham ko dar rakkhā

tire har naqsh-e-pā ko rahguzar meñ sajda-gah samjhe

jahāñ tū ne qadam rakkhā vahāñ maiñ ne bhī sar rakkhā

amiir achchhā shagūn-e-mai kiyā saaqī kī furqat meñ

jo barsā abr-e-rahmat jā-e-mai shīshoñ meñ bhar rakkhā

firāq-e-yār ne bechain mujh ko raat bhar rakkhā

kabhī takiya idhar rakkhā kabhī takiya idhar rakkhā

shikast-e-dil kā baqī hum ne ġhurbat meñ asar rakhā

likhā ahl-e-watan ko ḳhat to ek gosha katar rakkhā

barābar āīne ke bhī na samjhe qadr wo dil kī

ise zer-e-qadam rakkhā use pesh-e-nazar rakkhā

miTāe dīda-o-dil donoñ mere ashk-e-ḳhūnīñ ne

ajab ye tifl abtar thā na ghar rakkhā na dar rakkhā

tumhāre sañg-e-dar kā ek TukḌā bhī jo hath aayā

aziz aisā kiyā mar kar use chhātī pe dhar rakkhā

jināñ meñ sath apne kyuñ na le jāūñgā nāseh ko

sulūk aisā hī mere sath hai hazrat ne kar rakkhā

na kī kis ne sifārish merī waqt-e-qatl qātil se

kamāñ ne hath joḌe teġh ne qadmoñ pe sar rakkhā

jagah ḳhālī jo paī yar ko ġhairoñ ne bhar rakkhā

baḌā ehsāñ hai mere sar pe us kī laġhzish-e-pā kā

ki is ne be-tahāshā hath mere dosh par rakkhā

zamīñ meñ dāna-e-gandum sadaf meñ hum hue gauhar

hamāre ijz ne har marka meñ hum ko dar rakkhā
