kis muñh se kaheñ gunāh kyā haiñ
tauba hai rū-siyāh kyā haiñ
allāh hai afv karne vaalā
maiñ kyā huuñ mire gunāh kyā haiñ
ai dost tire gadā ke aage
kuchh bhī nahīñ bādshāh kyā haiñ
tum sā koī bad-chalan na hogā
hai hai āshiq tabāh kyā haiñ
gorī gorī hai un kī sūrat
us par gesū-e-siyāh kyā haiñ
chakkar maiñ haiñ shaiḳh-o-gabr dono
apne liye ḳhud tabāh kyā haiñ
dekhe koī hāl-e-ahl-e-duniyā
ye log bhī vaah vaah kyā haiñ
utreñ un se muqāble ko
aflāk pe mehr-o-māh kyā haiñ
dhūmeñ teġh-e-nigāh kī haiñ
tevar ai kaj-kulāh kyā haiñ
shāhid haiñ tire sitam ke lākhoñ
do-chār us ke gavāh kyā haiñ
allāh re un butoñ kī āñkheñ
kāfir jaadū nigāh kyā haiñ
kaT jā.egī umr-e-chand-roza
fikreñ shām-o-pagāh kyā haiñ
un kā to javāb hī nahīñ hai
māshā-allāh vaah kyā haiñ
ai dil ulfat ke mahkame meñ
qaazī kyā hai gavāh kyā haiñ
dil hai to ziyāda us se hoñge
ye nāla-o-ashk-o-āh kyā haiñ
pahlū meñ nigār haath meñ jaam
is vaqt to bādshāh kyā haiñ
un kī aamad jo ai 'sabā' hai
sab matlab rū-ba-rāh kyā haiñ
kis munh se kahen gunah kya hain
tauba hai ru-siyah kya hain
allah hai afw karne wala
main kya hun mere gunah kya hain
ai dost tere gada ke aage
kuchh bhi nahin baadshah kya hain
tum sa koi bad-chalan na hoga
hai hai aashiq tabah kya hain
gori gori hai un ki surat
us par gesu-e-siyah kya hain
chakkar main hain shaiKH-o-gabr dono
apne liye KHud tabah kya hain
dekhe koi haal-e-ahl-e-duniya
ye log bhi wah wah kya hain
utren un se muqable ko
aflak pe mehr-o-mah kya hain
dhumen tegh-e-nigah ki hain
tewar ai kaj-kulah kya hain
shahid hain tere sitam ke lakhon
do-chaar us ke gawah kya hain
allah re un buton ki aankhen
kafir jadu nigah kya hain
kaT jaegi umr-e-chand-roza
fikren sham-o-pagah kya hain
un ka to jawab hi nahin hai
masha-allah wah kya hain
ai dil ulfat ke mahkame mein
qazi kya hai gawah kya hain
dil hai to ziyaada us se honge
ye nala-o-ashk-o-ah kya hain
pahlu mein nigar hath mein jam
is waqt to baadshah kya hain
un ki aamad jo ai 'saba' hai
sab matlab ru-ba-rah kya hain
