ka se puchhun piya ki khabariya

kā se pūchhūñ piyā kī khabariyā

ko jaa.e piyā kī nagariyā

piyā balam rahe kone desā

mohe kaThin bhayo hai sandesā

sakhī jab se kiyo hai pyārā

chau-des bhayo añdhiyārā

ye kaase kahūñ maiñ kahānī

morī biitī jaat javānī

morī laaj sharam sab ga.ī hai

piyā dekho ye gat bha.ī hai

mohe dekh paḌat nā koī

morā tan-man joban vo hī

mohe log kahat haiñ divānī

morī man kī ko.ū na jaanī

mohe birahā dard ne satāyo

morā joban saarā jarāyo

morī liyo khabariyā pyāre

morī naav paḌī mañjhdhāre

mohe paar lagāo sayyāñ

more tum hī raam gosayyāñ

sakhī 'ḳhalīl' piyā rañg bhīnāñ

mo pe kaisā jaadū kīnhā

ka se puchhun piya ki khabariya

ko jae piya ki nagariya

piya balam rahe kone desa

mohe kaThin bhayo hai sandesa

sakhi jab se kiyo hai pyara

chau-des bhayo andhiyara

ye kase kahun main kahani

mori biti jat jawani

mori laj sharam sab gai hai

piya dekho ye gat bhai hai

mohe dekh paDat na koi

mora tan-man joban wo hi

mohe log kahat hain diwani

mori man ki kou na jaani

mohe biraha dard ne satayo

mora joban sara jarayo

mori liyo khabariya pyare

mori naw paDi manjhdhaare

mohe par lagao sayyan

more tum hi ram gosayyan

sakhi 'KHalil' piya rang bhinan

mo pe kaisa jadu kinha
