hisār-e-zāt se kaT kar to jī nahīñ sakte
bhañvar kī zad se yuuñ mahfūz apnī naav na rakh
hisar-e-zat se kaT kar to ji nahin sakte
bhanwar ki zad se yun mahfuz apni naw na rakh
vaqt ik mauj hai aatā hai guzar jaatā hai
Duub jaate haiñ jo lamhāt ubharte kab haiñ
waqt ek mauj hai aata hai guzar jata hai
Dub jate hain jo lamhat ubharte kab hain
