wo firaq aur wo visal kahan
vo firāq aur vo visāl kahāñ
vo shab-o-roz o māh-o-sāl kahāñ
fursat-e-kārobār-e-shauq kise
zauq-e-nazzāra-e-jamāl kahāñ
dil to dil vo dimāġh bhī na rahā
shor-e-saudā-e-ḳhatt-o-ḳhāl kahāñ
thī vo ik shaḳhs ke tasavvur se
ab vo rānā.ī-e-ḳhayāl kahāñ
aisā āsāñ nahīñ lahū ronā
dil meñ tāqat jigar meñ haal kahāñ
ham se chhūTā qimār-ḳhāna-e-ishq
vaañ jo jāveñ girah meñ maal kahāñ
fikr-e-duniyā meñ sar khapātā huuñ
maiñ kahāñ aur ye vabāl kahāñ
muzmahil ho ga.e qavā ġhālib
vo anāsir meñ e'tidāl kahāñ
bose meñ vo muzā.iqa na kare
par mujhe tāqat-e-savāl kahāñ
falak-e-sifla be-muhābā hai
is sitam-gar ko infi.āl kahāñ
wo firaq aur wo visal kahan
wo shab-o-roz o mah-o-sal kahan
fursat-e-karobar-e-shauq kise
zauq-e-nazzara-e-jamal kahan
dil to dil wo dimagh bhi na raha
shor-e-sauda-e-KHatt-o-KHal kahan
thi wo ek shaKHs ke tasawwur se
ab wo ranai-e-KHayal kahan
aisa aasan nahin lahu rona
dil mein taqat jigar mein haal kahan
hum se chhuTa qimar-KHana-e-ishq
wan jo jawen girah mein mal kahan
fikr-e-duniya mein sar khapata hun
main kahan aur ye wabaal kahan
muzmahil ho gae qawa ghaalib
wo anasir mein e'tidal kahan
bose mein wo muzaiqa na kare
par mujhe taqat-e-sawal kahan
falak-e-sifla be-muhaba hai
is sitam-gar ko infial kahan
