aaj ik aur baras biit gayā us ke baġhair
jis ke hote hue hote the zamāne mere
ye sard raat ye āvārgī ye niiñd kā bojh
ham apne shahr meñ hote to ghar ga.e hote
ye sard raat ye aawargi ye nind ka bojh
hum apne shahr mein hote to ghar gae hote
diye ke aur havāoñ ke marāsim khul nahīñ paate
nahīñ khultā ki in meñ se ye kis kī āzmā.ish hai
diye ke aur hawaon ke marasim khul nahin pate
nahin khulta ki in mein se ye kis ki aazmaish hai
mohabbat aam sā ik vāqi.a thā
hamāre saath pesh aane se pahle
mohabbat aam sa ek waqia tha
hamare sath pesh aane se pahle
tiir pe tiir nishānoñ pe nishāne badle
shukr hai husn ke andāz purāne badle
tir pe tir nishanon pe nishane badle
shukr hai husn ke andaz purane badle
ab tak dil-e-ḳhush-fahm ko tujh se haiñ umīdeñ
ye āḳhirī sham.eñ bhī bujhāne ke liye aa
my heart is optimistic yet, its hopes are still alive
come to snuff it out, let not this final flame survive
ab tak dil-e-KHush-fahm ko tujh se hain umiden
ye aaKHiri shamen bhi bujhane ke liye aa
