marne ke liye aa.e the ham dasht-e-balā meñ

jiine kī du'ā de gayā darvesh hameñ kyoñ

marne ke liye aae the hum dasht-e-bala mein

jine ki du'a de gaya darwesh hamein kyon

ye aur baat musalsal harā rahā lekin

daraḳht-e-dil pe kabhī mausamī samar na lage

ye aur baat musalsal hara raha lekin

daraKHt-e-dil pe kabhi mausami samar na lage

ārzū-e-dil-e-betāb mukammal kar de

ḳhvāhish-e-dīd-e-sanam chashm meñ bal khātī hai

aarzu-e-dil-e-betab mukammal kar de

KHwahish-e-did-e-sanam chashm mein bal khati hai

dil lutf-e-intizār kā ummīd-vār thā

vo dastyāb ho gayā tāḳhīr ke baġhair

dil lutf-e-intizar ka ummid-war tha

wo dastyab ho gaya taKHir ke baghair
