tohmat-e-chand apne zimme dhar chale

tohmat-e-chand apne zimme dhar chale

jis liye aa.e the so ham kar chale

zindagī hai yā koī tūfān hai!

ham to is jiine ke hāthoñ mar chale

kyā hameñ kaam in guloñ se ai sabā

ek dam aa.e idhar, ūdhar chale

dosto! dekhā tamāshā yaañ kā sab

tum raho ḳhush ham to apne ghar chale

aah! bas mat jī jalā tab jāniye

jab koī afsūñ tirā us par chale

ek maiñ dil-rīsh huuñ vaisā hī dost

zaḳhm kitnoñ ke sunā hai bhar chale

sham.a ke mānind ham is bazm meñ

chashm-tar aa.e the dāman-tar chale

DhūñDhte haiñ aap se us ko pare

shaiḳh sāhib chhoḌ ghar, bāhar chale

ham na jaane paa.e bāhar aap se

vo hī aaḌe aa gayā jīdhar chale

ham jahāñ meñ aa.e the tanhā vale

saath apne ab use le kar chale

juuñ sharar ai hastī-e-be-būd yaañ

baare ham bhī apnī baaī bhar chale

sāqiyā! yaañ lag rahā hai chal-chalāv

jab talak bas chal sake, sāġhar chale

'dard' kuchh ma.alūm hai ye log sab

kis taraf se aa.e the kīdhar chale

tohmat-e-chand apne zimme dhar chale

jis liye aae the so hum kar chale

zindagī hai yā koī tūfān hai!

hum to is jine ke hāthoñ mar chale

kyā hameñ kaam in guloñ se ai sabā

ek dam aae idhar, ūdhar chale

dosto! dekhā tamāshā yañ kā sab

tum raho ḳhush hum to apne ghar chale

aah! bas mat jī jalā tab jāniye

jab koī afsūñ tirā us par chale

ek maiñ dil-rīsh huñ waisā hī dost

zaḳhm kitnoñ ke sunā hai bhar chale

shama ke mānind hum is bazm meñ

chashm-tar aae the dāman-tar chale

DhūñDhte haiñ aap se us ko pare

shaiḳh sāhib chhoḌ ghar, bāhar chale

hum na jaane pae bāhar aap se

wo hī aaḌe aa gayā jīdhar chale

hum jahāñ meñ aae the tanhā wale

sath apne ab use le kar chale

juñ sharar ai hastī-e-be-būd yañ

bare hum bhī apnī baī bhar chale

sāqiyā! yañ lag rahā hai chal-chalāw

jab talak bas chal sake, sāġhar chale

'dard' kuchh malūm hai ye log sab

kis taraf se aae the kīdhar chale
