aaj ik aur baras biit gayā us ke baġhair
jis ke hote hue hote the zamāne mere
mil bhī jaatā jo kahīñ āb-e-baqā kyā karte
zindagī ḳhud bhī thī jiine kī sazā kyā karte
mil bhi jata jo kahin aab-e-baqa kya karte
zindagi KHud bhi thi jine ki saza kya karte
ab to utnī bhī mayassar nahīñ mai-ḳhāne meñ
jitnī ham chhoḌ diyā karte the paimāne meñ
the tavern does not even give that much wine to me
that I was wont to waste in the goblet casually
ab to utni bhi mayassar nahin mai-KHane mein
jitni hum chhoD diya karte the paimane mein
ai dost ham ne tark-e-mohabbat ke bāvajūd
mahsūs kī hai terī zarūrat kabhī kabhī
ai dost hum ne tark-e-mohabbat ke bawajud
mahsus ki hai teri zarurat kabhi kabhi
'bānī' zarā sambhal ke mohabbat kā moḌ kaaT
ik hādsa bhī taak meñ hogā yahīñ kahīñ
'bani' zara sambhal ke mohabbat ka moD kaT
ek hadsa bhi tak mein hoga yahin kahin
hamārī muskurāhaT par na jaanā
diyā to qabr par bhī jal rahā hai
hamari muskurahaT par na jaana
diya to qabr par bhi jal raha hai
