duniyā kī ik riit purānī, milnā aur bichhaḌnā hai

ek zamāna biit gayā hai tum kab milne aaoge

duniya ki ek rit purani, milna aur bichhaDna hai

ek zamana bit gaya hai tum kab milne aaoge

terī ḳhushbū se mo.attar hai zamāna saarā

kaise mumkin hai vo ḳhushbū bhī gulāboñ meñ mile

teri KHushbu se moattar hai zamana sara

kaise mumkin hai wo KHushbu bhi gulabon mein mile

āsthā kā rañg aa jaa.e agar māhaul meñ

ek rākhī zindagī kā ruḳh badal saktī hai aaj

aastha ka rang aa jae agar mahaul mein

ek rakhi zindagi ka ruKH badal sakti hai aaj

kisī kī baat koī bad-gumāñ na samjhegā

zamīñ kā dard kabhī āsmāñ na samjhegā

kisi ki baat koi bad-guman na samjhega

zamin ka dard kabhi aasman na samjhega

sankaT ke din the to saa.e bhī mujh se katrāte the

sukh ke din aa.e to dekho duniyā mere saath huī

sankaT ke din the to sae bhi mujh se katraate the

sukh ke din aae to dekho duniya mere sath hui
