jahan tera naqsh-e-qadam dekhte hain

jahāñ terā naqsh-e-qadam dekhte haiñ

ḳhayābāñ ḳhayābāñ iram dekhte haiñ

dil-āshuftagāñ ḳhāl-e-kunj-e-dahan ke

suvaidā meñ sair-e-adam dekhte haiñ

tire sarv-qāmat se ik qadd-e-ādam

qayāmat ke fitne ko kam dekhte haiñ

tamāshā ki ai mahv-e-ā.īna-dārī

tujhe kis tamannā se ham dekhte haiñ

surāġh-e-taf-e-nāla le dāġh-e-dil se

ki shab-rau kā naqsh-e-qadam dekhte haiñ

banā kar faqīroñ kā ham bhes 'ġhālib'

tamāshā-e-ahl-e-karam dekhte haiñ

kisū ko za-ḳhud rasta kam dekhte haiñ

ki aahū ko pāband-e-ram dekhte haiñ

ḳhat-e-laḳht-e-dil yak-qalam dekhte haiñ

mizha ko javāhar raqam dekhte haiñ

jahan tera naqsh-e-qadam dekhte hain

KHayaban KHayaban iram dekhte hain

dil-ashuftagan KHal-e-kunj-e-dahan ke

suwaida mein sair-e-adam dekhte hain

tere sarw-qamat se ek qadd-e-adam

qayamat ke fitne ko kam dekhte hain

tamasha ki ai mahw-e-aina-dari

tujhe kis tamanna se hum dekhte hain

suragh-e-taf-e-nala le dagh-e-dil se

ki shab-rau ka naqsh-e-qadam dekhte hain

bana kar faqiron ka hum bhes 'ghaalib'

tamasha-e-ahl-e-karam dekhte hain
