shauq-e-sawab kuchh nahin KHauf-e-azab kuchh nahin
shauq-e-savāb kuchh nahīñ ḳhauf-e-azāb kuchh nahīñ
jis meñ na josh-e-johd ho us kā shabāb kuchh nahīñ
zindagī ik savāl hai jis kā javāb maut hai
maut bhī ik savāl hai jis kā javāb kuchh nahīñ
naġhma-e-nau ke vāste ġhair kī ehtiyāj kyā
chheḌ de tār-e-sāz-e-dil chañg-o-rubāb kuchh nahīñ
saaf diloñ ke vāste tañg hai arsa-e-hayāt
zāt-e-hubāb ḳhuub hai umr-e-hubāb kuchh nahīñ
barhaman aur shaiḳh meñ jhagḌe yahī haiñ raat din
terī kitāb kuchh nahīñ terī kitāb kuchh nahīñ
raat ko mai-kade meñ kal thī kisī mast kī sadā
ek nazar kā rañg hai rañg-e-sharāb kuchh nahīñ
shauq-e-sawab kuchh nahin KHauf-e-azab kuchh nahin
jis mein na josh-e-johd ho us ka shabab kuchh nahin
zindagi ek sawal hai jis ka jawab maut hai
maut bhi ek sawal hai jis ka jawab kuchh nahin
naghma-e-nau ke waste ghair ki ehtiyaj kya
chheD de tar-e-saz-e-dil chang-o-rubab kuchh nahin
saf dilon ke waste tang hai arsa-e-hayat
zat-e-hubab KHub hai umr-e-hubab kuchh nahin
barhaman aur shaiKH mein jhagDe yahi hain raat din
teri kitab kuchh nahin teri kitab kuchh nahin
raat ko mai-kade mein kal thi kisi mast ki sada
ek nazar ka rang hai rang-e-sharab kuchh nahin
