apna jab bojh meri jaan uThana paD jae

apnā jab bojh mirī jaan uThānā paḌ jaa.e

dūsroñ kā na kuchh ehsān uThānā paḌ jaa.e

is qadar aish-e-mohabbat pe na ho ḳhush ki tujhe

dūsre ishq meñ nuqsān uThānā paḌ jaa.e

is sarā.e meñ na phailā.iye ajzā-e-hayāt

jaane kis vaqt ye sāmān uThānā paḌ jaa.e

yuuñ na ho bol paḌūñ maiñ tirī ḳhāmoshī par

aur tujhe bazm se mehmān uThānā paḌ jaa.e

phir badal jaa.e na is va.ada-e-imroz se tū

aur hameñ dūsrā tūfān uThānā paḌ jaa.e

kyā tamāshā ho sar-e-kūcha-e-dildār agar

mere jaisā koī nādān uThānā paḌ jaa.e

maiñ to mar jā.ūñ usī vaqt agar mujh ko 'jamāl'

ishq se haath kisī aan uThānā paḌ jaa.e

apna jab bojh meri jaan uThana paD jae

dusron ka na kuchh ehsan uThana paD jae

is qadar aish-e-mohabbat pe na ho KHush ki tujhe

dusre ishq mein nuqsan uThana paD jae

is sarae mein na phailaiye ajza-e-hayat

jaane kis waqt ye saman uThana paD jae

yun na ho bol paDun main teri KHamoshi par

aur tujhe bazm se mehman uThana paD jae

phir badal jae na is wada-e-imroz se tu

aur hamein dusra tufan uThana paD jae

kya tamasha ho sar-e-kucha-e-dildar agar

mere jaisa koi nadan uThana paD jae

main to mar jaun usi waqt agar mujh ko 'jamal'

ishq se hath kisi aan uThana paD jae
