qafas-nasibon ka uf haal-e-zar kya hoga

qafas-nasīboñ kā uf hāl-e-zār kyā hogā

phir aa rahī hai chaman meñ bahār kyā hogā

dil-o-jigar pe liye hoñge zaḳhm kitnoñ ne

koī hamārī tarah dil-e-figār kyā hogā

isī ḳhayāl se maiñ arz-e-shauq kar na sakā

hayā se rañg-e-ruḳh-e-tāb-dār kyā hogā

bahār de na sakī ek phuul ko bhī nikhār

ḳhizāñ ke saath hai rañg-e-bahār kyā hogā

fasurda lāla-o-gul haiñ ravish ravish hai udaas

chaman meñ aise meñ jashn-e-bahār kyā hogā

ḳhadañg-e-nāz ne kuchh is tarah kiyā zaḳhmī

jo dil ke zaḳhm haiñ un kā shumār kyā hogā

kabhī kī TuuT ga.ī aas raat bhiig ga.ī

kisī ke aane kā ab intizār kyā hogā

qafas-nasibon ka uf haal-e-zar kya hoga

phir aa rahi hai chaman mein bahaar kya hoga

dil-o-jigar pe liye honge zaKHm kitnon ne

koi hamari tarah dil-e-figar kya hoga

isi KHayal se main arz-e-shauq kar na saka

haya se rang-e-ruKH-e-tab-dar kya hoga

bahaar de na saki ek phul ko bhi nikhaar

KHizan ke sath hai rang-e-bahaar kya hoga

fasurda lala-o-gul hain rawish rawish hai udas

chaman mein aise mein jashn-e-bahaar kya hoga

KHadang-e-naz ne kuchh is tarah kiya zaKHmi

jo dil ke zaKHm hain un ka shumar kya hoga

kabhi ki TuT gai aas raat bhig gai

kisi ke aane ka ab intizar kya hoga
