aaj ik aur baras biit gayā us ke baġhair
jis ke hote hue hote the zamāne mere
tumhārā naam likhne kī ijāzat chhin ga.ī jab se
koī bhī lafz likhtā huuñ to āñkheñ bhiig jaatī haiñ
tumhaara nam likhne ki ijazat chhin gai jab se
koi bhi lafz likhta hun to aankhen bhig jati hain
shajar ne pūchhā ki tujh meñ ye kis kī ḳhushbū hai
havā-e-shām-e-alam ne kahā udāsī kī
shajar ne puchha ki tujh mein ye kis ki KHushbu hai
hawa-e-sham-e-alam ne kaha udasi ki
inhīñ pattharoñ pe chal kar agar aa sako to aao
mire ghar ke rāste meñ koī kahkashāñ nahīñ hai
inhin pattharon pe chal kar agar aa sako to aao
mere ghar ke raste mein koi kahkashan nahin hai
milāte ho usī ko ḳhaak meñ jo dil se miltā hai
mirī jaañ chāhne vaalā baḌī mushkil se miltā hai
those who meet you lovingly then into dust you grind
those who bear affection, dear, are very hard to find
milate ho usi ko KHak mein jo dil se milta hai
meri jaan chahne wala baDi mushkil se milta hai
ab to ḳhushī kā ġham hai na ġham kī ḳhushī mujhe
be-his banā chukī hai bahut zindagī mujhe
ab to KHushi ka gham hai na gham ki KHushi mujhe
be-his bana chuki hai bahut zindagi mujhe
