jis jā nasīm shānā-kash-e-zulf-e-yār hai

naafā dimāġh-e-āhu-e-dasht-e-tatār hai

kis kā surāġh jalva hai hairat ko ai ḳhudā

ā.īna farsh-e-shash-jahat-e-intizār hai

hai zarra zarra tañgi-e-jā se ġhubār-e-shauq

gar daam ye hai vus.at-e-sahrā shikār hai

dil mudda.ī o diida banā mudda.ā-alaih

nazzāre kā muqaddama phir rū-ba-kār hai

chhiḌke hai shabnam ā.īna-e-barg-e-gul par aab

ai andalīb vaqt-e-vadā-e-bahār hai

pach aa paḌī hai vāda-e-dil-dār kī mujhe

vo aa.e yā na aa.e pe yaañ intizār hai

be-parda sū-e-vādi-e-majnūñ guzar na kar

har zarra ke naqāb meñ dil be-qarār hai

ai andalīb yak kaf-e-ḳhas bahr-e-āshyāñ

tūfān-e-āmad āmad-e-fasl-e-bahār hai

dil mat gañvā ḳhabar na sahī sair hī sahī

ai be-dimāġh ā.īna timsāl-dār hai

ġhaflat kafīl-e-umr o 'asad' zāmin-e-nashāt

ai marg-e-nā-gahāñ tujhe kyā intizār hai

jis jā nasīm shānā-kash-e-zulf-e-yār hai

nafā dimāġh-e-āhu-e-dasht-e-tatār hai

kis kā surāġh jalwa hai hairat ko ai ḳhudā

āīna farsh-e-shash-jahat-e-intizār hai

hai zarra zarra tañgi-e-jā se ġhubār-e-shauq

gar dam ye hai wusat-e-sahrā shikār hai

dil muddaī o dida banā muddaā-alaih

nazzāre kā muqaddama phir rū-ba-kār hai

chhiḌke hai shabnam āīna-e-barg-e-gul par aab

ai andalīb waqt-e-wadā-e-bahār hai
