phir charagh-e-lala se raushan hue koh-o-daman
phir charāġh-e-lāla se raushan hue koh-o-daman
mujh ko phir naġhmoñ pe uksāne lagā murġh-e-chaman
phuul haiñ sahrā meñ yā pariyāñ qatār-andar-qatār
ūde-ūde nīle-nīle pīle-pīle pairahan
barg-e-gul par rakh ga.ī shabnam kā motī bād-e-sub.h
aur chamkātī hai us motī ko sūraj kī kiran
husn-e-be-parvā ko apnī be-naqābī ke liye
hoñ agar shahroñ se ban pyāre to shahar achchhe ki ban
apne man meñ Duub kar pā jā surāġh-e-zindagī
tū agar merā nahīñ bantā na ban apnā to ban
man kī duniyā man kī duniyā soz-o-mastī jazb-o-shauq
tan kī duniyā tan kī duniyā sūd-o-saudā makr-o-fan
man kī daulat haath aatī hai to phir jaatī nahīñ
tan kī daulat chhāñv hai aatā hai dhan jaatā hai dhan
man kī duniyā meñ na paayā maiñ ne afrañgī kā raaj
man kī duniyā meñ na dekhe maiñ ne shaiḳh-o-barhaman
pānī-pānī kar ga.ī mujh ko qalandar kī ye baat
tū jhukā jab ġhair ke aage na man terā na tan
phir charagh-e-lala se raushan hue koh-o-daman
mujh ko phir naghmon pe uksane laga murgh-e-chaman
phul hain sahra mein ya pariyan qatar-andar-qatar
ude-ude nile-nile pile-pile pairahan
barg-e-gul par rakh gai shabnam ka moti baad-e-subh
aur chamkati hai us moti ko suraj ki kiran
husn-e-be-parwa ko apni be-naqabi ke liye
hon agar shahron se ban pyare to shahar achchhe ki ban
apne man mein Dub kar pa ja suragh-e-zindagi
tu agar mera nahin banta na ban apna to ban
man ki duniya man ki duniya soz-o-masti jazb-o-shauq
tan ki duniya tan ki duniya sud-o-sauda makr-o-fan
man ki daulat hath aati hai to phir jati nahin
tan ki daulat chhanw hai aata hai dhan jata hai dhan
man ki duniya mein na paya main ne afrangi ka raj
man ki duniya mein na dekhe main ne shaiKH-o-barhaman
pani-pani kar gai mujh ko qalandar ki ye baat
tu jhuka jab ghair ke aage na man tera na tan
