ji mein hai yaad ruKH-o-zulf-e-siyah-fam bahut

jī meñ hai yaad ruḳh-o-zulf-e-siyah-fām bahut

ronā aatā hai mujhe har sahar-o-shām bahut

dast-e-sayyād talak bhī na maiñ pahuñchā jiitā

be-qarārī ne liyā mujh ko tah-e-dām bahut

ek do chashmak idhar gardish-e-sāġhar ki mudām

sar chaḌhī rahtī hai ye gardish-e-ayyām bahut

dil-ḳharāshī-o-jigar-chākī-o-ḳhūñ-afshānī

huuñ to nākām pe rahte haiñ mujhe kaam bahut

rah gayā dekh ke tujh chashm pe ye satar-e-mizha

sāqiyā yuuñ to paḌhe the maiñ ḳhat-e-jām bahut

phir na aa.e jo hue ḳhaak meñ jā āsūda

ġhāliban zer-e-zamīñ 'mīr' hai ārām bahut

ji mein hai yaad ruKH-o-zulf-e-siyah-fam bahut

rona aata hai mujhe har sahar-o-sham bahut

dast-e-sayyaad talak bhi na main pahuncha jita

be-qarari ne liya mujh ko tah-e-dam bahut

ek do chashmak idhar gardish-e-saghar ki mudam

sar chaDhi rahti hai ye gardish-e-ayyam bahut

dil-KHarashi-o-jigar-chaaki-o-KHun-afshani

hun to nakaam pe rahte hain mujhe kaam bahut

rah gaya dekh ke tujh chashm pe ye satar-e-mizha

saqiya yun to paDhe the main KHat-e-jam bahut

phir na aae jo hue KHak mein ja aasuda

ghaaliban zer-e-zamin 'mir' hai aaram bahut
