chashm-e-haq-bīñ ho chukī hai shād-kām-e-ārzū

toḌtā hai ab tilism-e-jalva-e-bātil mujhe

chashm-e-haq-bin ho chuki hai shad-kaam-e-arzu

toDta hai ab tilism-e-jalwa-e-baatil mujhe

jise kahte haiñ maut ik be-ḳhudī kī niiñd hai 'shā.eq'

pareshānī hai jis kā naam vo hai zindagī apnī

jise kahte hain maut ek be-KHudi ki nind hai 'shaeq'

pareshani hai jis ka nam wo hai zindagi apni

kar diyā hai be-ḳhudī ne aaj is qābil mujhe

apne pahlū meñ liye letī hai ḳhud manzil mujhe

kar diya hai be-KHudi ne aaj is qabil mujhe

apne pahlu mein liye leti hai KHud manzil mujhe
