use malal ho kya dost ki judai ka

use malāl ho kyā dost kī judā.ī kā

jo sah chukā ho ġham-o-rañj āshnā.ī kā

bhalā.ī meñ bhī nikālā sabab burā.ī kā

banā diyā hai adū ne pahāḌ raa.ī kā

ye chāñd-tāre ye sūraj haiñ kyā darīche haiñ

tujhe bhī shauq hai goyā ki ḳhud-numā.ī kā

taḌaptā dekh ke charke lagā.e bismil ko

sitam to Thiik pa aalam tirī DhiTā.ī kā

maiñ jab yahāñ se gayā mere haath ḳhālī the

hisāb le liyā duniyā ne paa.ī paa.ī kā

use malal ho kya dost ki judai ka

jo sah chuka ho gham-o-ranj aashnai ka

bhalai mein bhi nikala sabab burai ka

bana diya hai adu ne pahaD rai ka

ye chand-tare ye suraj hain kya dariche hain

tujhe bhi shauq hai goya ki KHud-numai ka

taDapta dekh ke charke lagae bismil ko

sitam to Thik pa aalam teri DhiTai ka

main jab yahan se gaya mere hath KHali the

hisab le liya duniya ne pai pai ka
