nazar nichi hai yar-e-KHush-nazar ki

nazar nīchī hai yār-e-ḳhush-nazar kī

karāmat hai ye merī chashm-e-tar kī

mubārak tujh ko ai sarv-e-ḳhirāmāñ

javānī dhuup jaise dopahar kī

usī ko lutf aayā zindagī kā

junūñ meñ zindagī jis ne basar kī

yahāñ parvāz ke ādāb sīkho

asīrī tarbiyat hai bāl-o-par kī

safar kaTtā hai aksar be-ḳhudī meñ

adā.eñ yaad haiñ ik ham-safar kī

ḳhushā ai soz-e-ġham terī badaulat

duāoñ par ināyat hai asar kī

vo ḳhush haiñ 'vajd' arz-e-hāl kar le

yahāñ fursat nahīñ arz-e-hunar kī

nazar nichi hai yar-e-KHush-nazar ki

karamat hai ye meri chashm-e-tar ki

mubarak tujh ko ai sarw-e-KHiraman

jawani dhup jaise dopahar ki

usi ko lutf aaya zindagi ka

junun mein zindagi jis ne basar ki

yahan parwaz ke aadab sikho

asiri tarbiyat hai baal-o-par ki

safar kaTta hai aksar be-KHudi mein

adaen yaad hain ek ham-safar ki

KHusha ai soz-e-gham teri badaulat

duaon par inayat hai asar ki

wo KHush hain 'wajd' arz-e-haal kar le

yahan fursat nahin arz-e-hunar ki
