shab-e-firaq kuchh aisa KHayal-e-yar raha
shab-e-firāq kuchh aisā ḳhayāl-e-yār rahā
ki raat bhar dil-e-ġham-dīda be-qarār rahā
kahegī hashr ke din us kī rahmat-e-be-had
ki be-gunāh se achchhā gunāh-gār rahā
tirā ḳhayāl bhī kis darja shoḳh hai ai shoḳh
ki jitnī der rahā dil meñ be-qarār rahā
sharāb-e-ishq faqat ik zarā sī chakkhī thī
baḌā surūr ghuTā muddatoñ ḳhumār rahā
unheñ ġharaz unheñ matlab vo haal kyuuñ pūchheñ
balā se un kī agar koī be-qarār rahā
tumheñ kabhī na kabhī mar ke bhī dikhā dūñgā
jo zindagī ne vafā kī jo barqarār rahā
adā.eñ dekh chuke aa.ine meñ aap apnī

shab-e-visāl baḌe lutf se kaTī ai 'hijr'
tamām raat kisī ke gale kā haar rahā
shab-e-firaq kuchh aisa KHayal-e-yar raha
ki raat bhar dil-e-gham-dida be-qarar raha
kahegi hashr ke din us ki rahmat-e-be-had
ki be-gunah se achchha gunah-gar raha
tera KHayal bhi kis darja shoKH hai ai shoKH
ki jitni der raha dil mein be-qarar raha
sharab-e-ishq faqat ek zara si chakkhi thi
baDa surur ghuTa muddaton KHumar raha
unhen gharaz unhen matlab wo haal kyun puchhen
bala se un ki agar koi be-qarar raha
tumhein kabhi na kabhi mar ke bhi dikha dunga
jo zindagi ne wafa ki jo barqarar raha
adaen dekh chuke aaine mein aap apni
bataiye to sahi dil par iKHtiyar raha
shab-e-visal baDe lutf se kaTi ai 'hijr'
tamam raat kisi ke gale ka haar raha
