Nain Khultay na thay, neend aati na thi, raat aahista aahista dhalti rahi

Nain Khultay na thay, neend aati na thi, raat aahista aahista dhalti rahi
Saaray OoraQ-e-Ghum muntashir hOgaye, dair tak dil main aandhi si chalti rahi

Ghaas thi jugnuOn ko chupaye huye, Pair thay teergi main nahaye huye
Aik konay main sar ko jhukaye huye, Dard ki shama afsurda jalti rahi

Pehlay din tha mOhabbat ki barsat ka, Waqt theraa tha tujhse mulaqat ka
Qatra Qatra guzarti rahin saa'aten, Saaye letay rahay. Dhoop chalti rahi

Ranj pichli mOhabbat k sehtay thay hUm, Aik hi Karya Jaan main rehtay thay hum
Din dhalay ya kisi subha k MOr par, Apnay milnay ki surat nikalti rahi

Aik raatOn main bichri hui raat main, Hum akailay tha khuab mulaqat main
Chal paray dono aik dusray ki taraf, Khuab Ghat'ta raha, Raat dhalti rahi
