jam lete hain na pine ko subu lete hain

jaam lete haiñ na piine ko subū lete haiñ

ham magar sarhad-e-idrāk ko chhū lete haiñ

mai mayassar jo nahīñ pyaas bujhāne ke liye

ham to chalo maiñ ab apnā hī lahū lete haiñ

merī begāna-ravī mujh ko bachā letī hai

intiqām apnī taraf se to 'adū lete haiñ

toḌ dete haiñ use kis liye phir ahl-e-junūñ

maañg kar ḳhud hī to zanjīr-e-gulū lete haiñ

sirf āñkhoñ kī tasallī ke liye hai ye sair

rang lete haiñ na ham phuul se bū lete haiñ

TuuT jaa.e na kisī zaḳhm kā Tāñkā ai dost

kaam ham zabt se hañgām-e-rafū lete haiñ

kyā 'munavvar' abhī bālīdgī-e-shauq kā zikr

kis qadar vaqt shajar bahr-e-numū lete haiñ

jam lete hain na pine ko subu lete hain

hum magar sarhad-e-idrak ko chhu lete hain

mai mayassar jo nahin pyas bujhane ke liye

hum to chalo main ab apna hi lahu lete hain

meri begana-rawi mujh ko bacha leti hai

intiqam apni taraf se to 'adu lete hain

toD dete hain use kis liye phir ahl-e-junun

mang kar KHud hi to zanjir-e-gulu lete hain

sirf aankhon ki tasalli ke liye hai ye sair

rang lete hain na hum phul se bu lete hain

TuT jae na kisi zaKHm ka Tanka ai dost

kaam hum zabt se hangam-e-rafu lete hain

kya 'munawwar' abhi baalidgi-e-shauq ka zikr

kis qadar waqt shajar bahr-e-numu lete hain
