husn jab maqtal ki jaanib tegh-e-burran le chala

husn jab maqtal kī jānib teġh-e-burrāñ le chalā

'ishq apne mujrmoñ ko pā-ba-jaulāñ le chalā

chhuT gayā dāman kaleja thaam kar ham rah ga.e

le chalā dil chhīn kar vo dushman-e-jāñ le chalā

be-muravvat nāvak-afgan āfrīñ-sad-āfrīñ

dil kā dil zaḳhmī kiyā paikāñ kā paikāñ le chalā

ārzū-e-dīd-e-jānāñ bazm meñ laa.ī mujhe

bazm se maiñ ārzū-e-dīd-e-jānāñ le chalā

dil ko jānāñ se 'hasan' samjhā-bujhā kar laa.e ham

dil hameñ samjhā-bujhā kar sū-e-jānāñ le chalā

husn jab maqtal ki jaanib tegh-e-burran le chala

'ishq apne mujrmon ko pa-ba-jaulan le chala

chhuT gaya daman kaleja tham kar hum rah gae

le chala dil chhin kar wo dushman-e-jaan le chala

be-murawwat nawak-afgan aafrin-sad-afrin

dil ka dil zaKHmi kiya paikan ka paikan le chala

aarzu-e-did-e-jaanan bazm mein lai mujhe

bazm se main aarzu-e-did-e-jaanan le chala

dil ko jaanan se 'hasan' samjha-bujha kar lae hum

dil hamein samjha-bujha kar su-e-jaanan le chala
