dard-e-sar meñ hai kise sandal lagāne kā dimāġh

us kā ghisnā aur lagānā dard-e-sar ye bhī to hai

dard-e-sar mein hai kise sandal lagane ka dimagh

us ka ghisna aur lagana dard-e-sar ye bhi to hai

havā ke ghoḌe pe jab vo savār hote haiñ

to pā ke vaqt maiñ kyā kyā maze uḌātā huuñ

hawa ke ghoDe pe jab wo sawar hote hain

to pa ke waqt main kya kya maze uData hun

terī āñkhoñ ke tasavvur meñ hai sair-e-kaunain

varna ham log idhar ke idhar ho ke rahte

teri aankhon ke tasawwur mein hai sair-e-kaunain

warna hum log idhar ke idhar ho ke rahte

ka.aba-o-dair ko apnā to yahīñ se hai salām

dar-ba-dar kaun phire yaar ke dar ke hote

kaba-o-dair ko apna to yahin se hai salam

dar-ba-dar kaun phire yar ke dar ke hote

ġhaflat meñ javānī ga.ī piirī meñ huā hosh

kyuuñ kar na khule aañkh sahar hī to hai āḳhir

ghaflat mein jawani gai piri mein hua hosh

kyun kar na khule aankh sahar hi to hai aaKHir
