KHushi ko muqtadi gham ko imam karne ki

ḳhushī ko muqtadī ġham ko imaam karne kī

sazā hai 'ishq ke but ko salām karne kī

makīn ghar kī divāroñ meñ chun diye ga.e the

sadā.eñ aatī thiiñ un ke ḳhirām karne kī

girāñ hai itnī laboñ par hurūf kī zanjīr

zabāñ pe qaid ho jaise kalām karne kī

nadī kināre bharī dopahar meñ aa baiThe

ḳhayāl-e-yār ko jaldī thī shaam karne kī

KHushi ko muqtadi gham ko imam karne ki

saza hai 'ishq ke but ko salam karne ki

makin ghar ki diwaron mein chun diye gae the

sadaen aati thin un ke KHiram karne ki

giran hai itni labon par huruf ki zanjir

zaban pe qaid ho jaise kalam karne ki

nadi kinare bhari dopahar mein aa baiThe

KHayal-e-yar ko jaldi thi sham karne ki
