sunta hai mere ham-nashin kahti hai ye bahaar kya

suntā hai mere ham-nashīñ kahtī hai ye bahār kyā

phūloñ se dostī na kar phūloñ kā e'tibār kyā

bāzī-e-dil kī maat par baḌh ga.e aur hausle

husn kī jiit jiit kyā ishq kī haar haar kyā

husn pe naaz kījiye aap magar na bhūliye

husn to chaḌhtī dhuup hai dhuup kā e'tibār kyā

de ke chaman ko apnā ḳhuuñ māñgtā kab huuñ ḳhūñ-bahā

maiñ huuñ bahār ke liye mere liye bahār kyā

lazzat-e-intizār meñ kho ga.e ham to ai 'nadīm'

apnā bhī intizār hai un kā hī intizār kyā

dil meñ hai anvar aaj bhī ātish-e-ġham se raushnī

miltī hai is maqām par sarhad-e-nūr-o-nār kyā

sunta hai mere ham-nashin kahti hai ye bahaar kya

phulon se dosti na kar phulon ka e'tibar kya

bazi-e-dil ki mat par baDh gae aur hausle

husn ki jit jit kya ishq ki haar haar kya

husn pe naz kijiye aap magar na bhuliye

husn to chaDhti dhup hai dhup ka e'tibar kya

de ke chaman ko apna KHun mangta kab hun KHun-baha

main hun bahaar ke liye mere liye bahaar kya

lazzat-e-intizar mein kho gae hum to ai 'nadim'

apna bhi intizar hai un ka hi intizar kya

dil mein hai anwar aaj bhi aatish-e-gham se raushni

milti hai is maqam par sarhad-e-nur-o-nar kya
