gham-e-KHashak kya shoale ko hoga

ġham-e-ḳhāshāk kyā sho.ale ko hogā

vo raqsāñ ḳhud hī ik lamhe ko hogā

chaTānoñ kī shikast āsāñ nahīñ hai

bil-āḳhir TūTnā shīshe ko hogā

ḳhayāl-e-dushmanāñ hogā to vo bhī

kisī mujh se hī dil vaale ko hogā

ye ghar to ghar jabhī kahlā.eñge jab

ġham-e-ham-sāya ham-sā.e ko hogā

maiñ jab guzrūñgā is johd-e-safar se

marā pichhlā qadam uThne ko hogā

vo shor uThne lagā bāhar ki ab to

bachānā ghar ke sannāTe ko hogā

zamāne ko bhī ham ne kab kiyā ḳhush

zamāna ham se ḳhush kaahe ko hogā

gham-e-KHashak kya shoale ko hoga

wo raqsan KHud hi ek lamhe ko hoga

chaTanon ki shikast aasan nahin hai

bil-aKHir TuTna shishe ko hoga

KHayal-e-dushmanan hoga to wo bhi

kisi mujh se hi dil wale ko hoga

ye ghar to ghar jabhi kahlaenge jab

gham-e-ham-saya ham-sae ko hoga

main jab guzrunga is johd-e-safar se

mara pichhla qadam uThne ko hoga

wo shor uThne laga bahar ki ab to

bachana ghar ke sannaTe ko hoga

zamane ko bhi hum ne kab kiya KHush

zamana hum se KHush kahe ko hoga
