zanjir

gosha-e-zanjīr meñ

ik na.ī jumbish huvaidā ho chalī

sañg-e-ḳhārā hī sahī ḳhār-e-muġhīlāñ hī sahī

dushman-e-jāñ dushman-e-jāñ hī sahī

dost se dast-o-garebāñ hī sahī

ye bhī to shabnam nahīñ

ye bhī to maḳhmal nahīñ diibā nahīñ resham nahīñ

har jagah phir sīna-e-naḳhchīr meñ

ik nayā armāñ na.ī ummīd paidā ho chalī

hajla-e-sīmīñ se tū bhī pīla-e-resham nikal

vo hasīñ aur dūr-uftāda farañgī aurteñ

tū ne jin ke husn-e-roz-afzūñ kī zīnat ke liye

sālahā be-dast-o-pā ho kar bune haiñ tār-hā-e-sīm-o-zar

un ke mardoñ ke liye bhī aaj ik sañgīn jaal

ho sake to apne paikar se nikāl

shukr hai dumbāla-e-zanjīr meñ

ik na.ī jumbish na.ī larzish huvaidā ho chalī

kohsāroñ reg-zāroñ se sadā aane lagī

zulm-parvarda ġhulāmo bhaag jaao

parda-e-shab-gīr meñ apne salāsil toḌ kar

chār-sū chhā.e hue zulmāt ko ab chiir jaao

aur is hañgām-bād-āvar ko

hīla-e-shab-ḳhūñ banāo

gosha-e-zanjir mein

ek nai jumbish huwaida ho chali

sang-e-KHara hi sahi KHar-e-mughilan hi sahi

dushman-e-jaan dushman-e-jaan hi sahi

dost se dast-o-gareban hi sahi

ye bhi to shabnam nahin

ye bhi to maKHmal nahin diba nahin resham nahin

har jagah phir sina-e-naKHchir mein

ek naya arman nai ummid paida ho chali

hajla-e-simin se tu bhi pila-e-resham nikal

wo hasin aur dur-uftada farangi aurten

tu ne jin ke husn-e-roz-afzun ki zinat ke liye

salaha be-dast-o-pa ho kar bune hain tar-ha-e-sim-o-zar

un ke mardon ke liye bhi aaj ek sangin jal

ho sake to apne paikar se nikal

shukr hai dumbaala-e-zanjir mein

ek nai jumbish nai larzish huwaida ho chali

kohsaron reg-zaron se sada aane lagi

zulm-parwarda ghulamo bhag jao

parda-e-shab-gir mein apne salasil toD kar

chaar-su chhae hue zulmat ko ab chir jao

aur is hangam-baad-awar ko

hila-e-shab-KHun banao
