band kar rauzan-e-dar chaho ki raKHna na rahe

band kar rauzan-e-dar chāho ki raḳhna na rahe

taak par dekhe nahīñ jhāñkne vaale tum ne

muñh kī khāoge mirī jaan ḳhudā ḳhair kare

muñh lagā rakkhe haiñ jis tarah rizāle tum ne

uf karūñ dil ke jalan se to kaleja phaT jaa.e

bulbulo kaise hazāroñ kiye naale tum ne

dāman-e-ashk na chhoḌūñgā maiñ ai dīda-e-tar

dil kiyā merā hasīnoñ ko havāle tum ne

dast-o-pā vādī-e-vahshat kī tamannā thī tumheñ

aable toḌ chuke ḳhaar nikāle tum ne

kab shikast aise sanad hai ki daġhā kī ai ḳhaar

haath se phoḌ liye paañv ke chhāle tum ne

zulf-e-zanjīr-e-junūñ samjhe bhī ai hazrat-e-dil

kyā paḌā pech ki paañv apne nikāle tum ne

kis gulistāñ kī chaman-bandī hai ai mardum-e-chashm

naḳhl-e-mizhgāñ se bhare ashkoñ se thāle tum ne

bulbuleñ phūloñ se nālāñ haiñ ki shabnam ke evaz

qatre sīmāb ke kānoñ meñ haiñ Daale tum ne

chashm-o-abrū se kisī mast kī be-shak bah ke

mai-kasho taaq pe kyoñ rakkhe haiñ pyāle tum ne

kahīñ sūrat na bañdhī naqsh-e-tamannā kī 'nasīm'

saikḌoñ sīm-badan sāñche meñ Dhāle tum ne

band kar rauzan-e-dar chaho ki raKHna na rahe

tak par dekhe nahin jhankne wale tum ne

munh ki khaoge meri jaan KHuda KHair kare

munh laga rakkhe hain jis tarah rizale tum ne

uf karun dil ke jalan se to kaleja phaT jae

bulbulo kaise hazaron kiye nale tum ne

daman-e-ashk na chhoDunga main ai dida-e-tar

dil kiya mera hasinon ko hawale tum ne

dast-o-pa wadi-e-wahshat ki tamanna thi tumhein

aable toD chuke KHar nikale tum ne

kab shikast aise sanad hai ki dagha ki ai KHar

hath se phoD liye panw ke chhaale tum ne

zulf-e-zanjir-e-junun samjhe bhi ai hazrat-e-dil

kya paDa pech ki panw apne nikale tum ne

kis gulistan ki chaman-bandi hai ai mardum-e-chashm

naKHl-e-mizhgan se bhare ashkon se thaale tum ne

bulbulen phulon se nalan hain ki shabnam ke ewaz

qatre simab ke kanon mein hain Dale tum ne

chashm-o-abru se kisi mast ki be-shak bah ke

mai-kasho taq pe kyon rakkhe hain pyale tum ne

kahin surat na bandhi naqsh-e-tamanna ki 'nasim'

saikDon sim-badan sanche mein Dhaale tum ne
