guzar gai jo chaman par wo koi kya jaane
guzar ga.ī jo chaman par vo koī kyā jaane
jhaḌe hue haiñ bahār-o-ḳhizāñ ke afsāne
jahāñ pe chāk-e-garebāñ bhī chāk-e-dil ban jaa.e
guzar rahe haiñ ab un manziloñ se dīvāne
mire laboñ kā tabassum to sab ne dekh liyā
jo dil pe biit rahī hai vo koī kyā jaane
tire huzūr jinheñ kah sakī na goyā.ī
mire sukūt ne dohrā diye vo afsāne
nigāh-e-ishq meñ dair-o-haram kī qaid nahīñ
kahīñ bhī sham.a jale uḌ chaleñge parvāne
tamām vus.at-e-kaunain ko Dubo deñge
chhalak ga.e jo kahīñ us nazar ke paimāne
na ishtiyāq-e-nazāra na e'tibār-e-jamāl
Thahar ga.ī hai kahāñ zindagī ḳhudā jaane
na sham-e-bazm pe kuchh aañch aa.egī 'iqbāl'
ḳhud apnī aag meñ jalte raheñge parvāne
guzar gai jo chaman par wo koi kya jaane
jhaDe hue hain bahaar-o-KHizan ke afsane
jahan pe chaak-e-gareban bhi chaak-e-dil ban jae
guzar rahe hain ab un manzilon se diwane
mere labon ka tabassum to sab ne dekh liya
jo dil pe bit rahi hai wo koi kya jaane
tere huzur jinhen kah saki na goyai
mere sukut ne dohra diye wo afsane
nigah-e-ishq mein dair-o-haram ki qaid nahin
kahin bhi shama jale uD chalenge parwane
tamam wusat-e-kaunain ko Dubo denge
chhalak gae jo kahin us nazar ke paimane
na ishtiyaq-e-nazara na e'tibar-e-jamal
Thahar gai hai kahan zindagi KHuda jaane
na sham-e-bazm pe kuchh aanch aaegi 'iqbaal'
KHud apni aag mein jalte rahenge parwane
