maikhana taraf aaya yaaran ! dil-o-jaan angez,

maikhana taraf aaya yaaran ! dil-o-jaan angez,

vo tashnalabaan humdum, tehjuraa kushaan angez,

pahuncha hai darmiyaan-e-shehar, baadal zadgaan-e-shehar,

vo ishratiyaan, aashob, vo hasratiyaan angez,

shoridasaraan darpas, khoon-e-jigaraan darpesh,

gul gasht ko niklaa hai, vo jaan-e-jahaan angez,

halqe men dir aaya hai kya koi faraagat dost ?

hai sakht baraashuftaa, vo mehnatiyaan angez,

khud mast hai aur kitnaa, sardast hai aur kaisa,

vo khud nigaraan afgan, vo muntziraan angez,

hai dair bhi fariyaadi, kaaba bhi hai zinhaari,

kis dhoom se aaya vo, yazdaan shikanaan angez,

ae dil vo but-e-shangal, kya turfaa adaa hoga,

main zikr se jiske hoon, yaan majlisiyaan angez,

kab tujhko damakna hai, kab tujhko meheknaa hai, 

ae rang-e-yaqeen afroz, ae boo-e-gumaan angez,
