KHwahish-e-jada-e-rahat se nikalta kaise
ḳhvāhish-e-jāda-e-rāhat se nikaltā kaise
dil mirā kū-e-malāmat se nikaltā kaise
sāya-e-vahm-o-gumāñ chaar taraf phailā hai
maiñ abhī karb-o-aziyyat se nikaltā kaise
merī rusvā.ī agar saath na detī merā
yuuñ sar-e-bazm maiñ izzat se nikaltā kaise
merī nazreñ jo na paḌtīñ to vahāñ pichhlī shab
ik sitārā sā tirī chhat se nikaltā kaise
maiñ ki barbād huā diid kī ḳhātir jis kī
vo mire dīda-e-hairat se nikaltā kaise
us ke dam hī se to qaa.em hai mirā jāh-o-jalāl
vo mire dil kī hukūmat se nikaltā kaise
jaag baiThā huuñ to dil Duubā nahīñ hai 'aḳhtar'
soyā rahtā to musībat se nikaltā kaise
KHwahish-e-jada-e-rahat se nikalta kaise
dil mera ku-e-malamat se nikalta kaise
saya-e-wahm-o-guman chaar taraf phaila hai
main abhi karb-o-aziyyat se nikalta kaise
meri ruswai agar sath na deti mera
yun sar-e-bazm main izzat se nikalta kaise
meri nazren jo na paDtin to wahan pichhli shab
ek sitara sa teri chhat se nikalta kaise
main ki barbaad hua did ki KHatir jis ki
wo mere dida-e-hairat se nikalta kaise
us ke dam hi se to qaem hai mera jah-o-jalal
wo mere dil ki hukumat se nikalta kaise
jag baiTha hun to dil Duba nahin hai 'aKHtar'
soya rahta to musibat se nikalta kaise
