dibacha-e-kitab farishte se kho gaya

dībācha-e-kitāb farishte se kho gayā

mazmūn-e-āñ-janāb farishte se kho gayā

tahrīr jo kiyā thā hamāre savāl par

yazdāñ kā vo javāb farishte se kho gayā

ham ko payambarī kī bashārat nahīñ milī

ilhām kā vo ḳhvāb farishte se kho gayā

sarzad huī thiiñ nashshe meñ ham se bhī nekiyāñ

vo daftar-e-hisāb farishte se kho gayā

kausar se bhar ke saaqī ne bhejā thā ham ko jo

mashkīza-e-sharāb farishte se kho gayā

āshiq ne koh-e-tūr pe khoyā hai hosh yuuñ

mahbūb kā naqāb farishte se kho gayā

injīl-e-pāk meñ to hamārā bhī zikr thā

āyāt kā vo baab farishte se kho gayā

dibacha-e-kitab farishte se kho gaya

mazmun-e-an-janab farishte se kho gaya

tahrir jo kiya tha hamare sawal par

yazdan ka wo jawab farishte se kho gaya

hum ko payambari ki bashaarat nahin mili

ilham ka wo KHwab farishte se kho gaya

sarzad hui thin nashshe mein hum se bhi nekiyan

wo daftar-e-hisab farishte se kho gaya

kausar se bhar ke saqi ne bheja tha hum ko jo

mashkiza-e-sharab farishte se kho gaya

aashiq ne koh-e-tur pe khoya hai hosh yun

mahbub ka naqab farishte se kho gaya

injil-e-pak mein to hamara bhi zikr tha

aayat ka wo bab farishte se kho gaya
