wo chup-chap aansu bahane ki raaten
vo chup-chāp aañsū bahāne kī rāteñ
vo ik shaḳhs ke yaad aane kī rāteñ
shab-e-mah kī vo ThanDī āñcheñ vo shabnam
tire husn ke rasmasāne kī rāteñ
javānī kī doshīzgī kā tabassum
gul-e-zār ke vo khilāne kī rāteñ
phuvāreñ sī naġhmoñ kī paḌtī hoñ jaise
kuchh us lab ke sunñe-sunāne kī rāteñ
mujhe yaad hai terī har sub.h-e-ruḳhsat
mujhe yaad haiñ tere aane kī rāteñ
pur-asrār sī merī arz-e-tamannā
vo kuchh zer-e-lab muskurāne kī rāteñ
sar-e-shām se ratjagā ke vo sāmāñ
vo pichhle pahar niiñd aane kī rāteñ
sar-e-shām se tā-sahar qurb-e-jānāñ
na jaane vo thiiñ kis zamāne kī rāteñ
sar-e-mai-kada tishnagī kī vo qasmeñ
vo saaqī se bāteñ banāne kī rāteñ
ham-āġhoshiyāñ shāhid-e-mehrbāñ kī
zamāne ke ġham bhuul jaane kī rāteñ
'firāq' apnī qismat meñ shāyad nahīñ the
Thikāne ke din yā Thikāne kī rāteñ
wo chup-chap aansu bahane ki raaten
wo ek shaKHs ke yaad aane ki raaten
shab-e-mah ki wo ThanDi aanchen wo shabnam
tere husn ke rasmasane ki raaten
jawani ki doshizgi ka tabassum
gul-e-zar ke wo khilane ki raaten
phuwaren si naghmon ki paDti hon jaise
kuchh us lab ke sunne-sunane ki raaten
mujhe yaad hai teri har subh-e-ruKHsat
mujhe yaad hain tere aane ki raaten
pur-asrar si meri arz-e-tamanna
wo kuchh zer-e-lab muskurane ki raaten
sar-e-sham se ratjaga ke wo saman
wo pichhle pahar nind aane ki raaten
sar-e-sham se ta-sahar qurb-e-jaanan
na jaane wo thin kis zamane ki raaten
sar-e-mai-kada tishnagi ki wo qasmen
wo saqi se baaten banane ki raaten
ham-aghoshiyan shahid-e-mehrban ki
zamane ke gham bhul jaane ki raaten
'firaq' apni qismat mein shayad nahin the
Thikane ke din ya Thikane ki raaten
