mil gai dard ki dawa dil ko

mil ga.ī dard kī davā dil ko

rakhe allāh mere qātil ko

ishq ne daaġh vo diyā dil ko

aa ga.ī sharm māh-e-kāmil ko

kaT chukī thī rag-e-hayāt mirī

rahm kab aaya mere qātil ko

maanā rahzan hai rāhbar merā

kyā kahūñ maiñ charāġh-e-manzil ko

kis kī kashtī lagī kināre se

zalzala aa rahā hai sāhil ko

sub.h ko par tarāshe jā.eñge

koī kar de ḳhabar anādil ko

dāġh-e-dil merā dekhne vaale

sham.a kahte haiñ māh-e-kāmil ko

maanā zālim haiñ bevafā haiñ phuul

shikva zebā nahīñ anādil ko

yūñhī dekhā nahīñ ma.āl-e-ishq

zahmateñ dī haiñ dast-e-qātil ko

maiñ chalā gard-e-kārvāñ ke saath

kah do merā salām manzil ko

maanā aajiz haiñ jaañ se parvāne

chāhiye kyā charāġh-e-mahfil ko

maut ne shaam se sulāyā mujhe

niiñd shab bhar na aa.ī qātil ko

Duub kar pā liyā sukūn-e-hayāt

pahoñche sāhil pe kho ke sāhil ko

un pe ik roz paḌ ga.ī thī nazar

umr bhar jhelnā paḌā dil ko

ġham meñ phūloñ ke bārhā 'ālī'

dekhā rote hue anādil ko

mil gai dard ki dawa dil ko

rakhe allah mere qatil ko

ishq ne dagh wo diya dil ko

aa gai sharm mah-e-kaamil ko

kaT chuki thi rag-e-hayat meri

rahm kab aaya mere qatil ko

mana rahzan hai rahbar mera

kya kahun main charagh-e-manzil ko

kis ki kashti lagi kinare se

zalzala aa raha hai sahil ko

subh ko par tarashe jaenge

koi kar de KHabar anadil ko

dagh-e-dil mera dekhne wale

shama kahte hain mah-e-kaamil ko

mana zalim hain bewafa hain phul

shikwa zeba nahin anadil ko

yunhi dekha nahin maal-e-ishq

zahmaten di hain dast-e-qatil ko

main chala gard-e-karwan ke sath

kah do mera salam manzil ko

mana aajiz hain jaan se parwane

chahiye kya charagh-e-mahfil ko

maut ne sham se sulaya mujhe

nind shab bhar na aai qatil ko

Dub kar pa liya sukun-e-hayat

pahonche sahil pe kho ke sahil ko

un pe ek roz paD gai thi nazar

umr bhar jhelna paDa dil ko

gham mein phulon ke barha 'ali'

dekha rote hue anadil ko
