Shehar ki raat aur main nashad-o-nakaara phiroonN

Shehar ki raat aur main 

nashad-o-nakaara phiroonN

jagmagati jaagati sarkooN 

peh aawara phriooN

ghair ki basti hai kab tak dar 

badar maraa phirooN

Aye gham-e-dil kya karooN, 

ay wahshat-e-dil kya karooN

jhilmilate qumqumon ki raah 

mein zanjeer si raat ke hathon 

mein din ki mohani tasveer si

mere seene par magar chalti 

hui shamsheer si

ay gham-e-dil kya karooN ay 

wahshat-e-dil kya karooN

yeh roopehli chhaon yeh 

aakash par taaroN ka jaal

jaise sufi ka tasavvur jaise 

aashiq ka khayaal

aah lekin kon jaane kon s

amjhe jee ka haal

ay gham-e-dil kya karooN, 

ay wahshat-e-dil kya karooN

phir woh toota ik sitara phir 

woh chhooThi puljhaRi

jane kis ki gaud meiN aai yeh 

moti ki laRi

hook si seenay meiN uThi chaut 

si dil per paRi 

ay gham-e-dil kya karooN, 

ay wahshat-e-dil kya karooN

raat hans hans kar yeh kehti 

hei ke maikhane meiN chal

phir kisi shahnaz-e-lalarukh 

ke kaashane meiN chal

yeh nahiN mumkin to phir ay 

dost veerane meiN chal

ay gham-e-dil kya karooN, 

ay wahshat-e-dil kya karooN

har taraf hei bikhri hui, 

rangeeniyaaN, r'aanaiyaaN

har qadam par ishrateiN 

leti hui angRaiyaaN

baRh rahi hei gaud phailai 

hoi ruswaaiyaaN 

ay gham-e-dil kya karooN, 

ai wahshat-e-dil kya karooN

raaste mein ruk ke dam le 

loon meri aadat nahiN

laut kar vaapas chala jaaooN, 

meri fitrat nahiN

aur koi hamnawa mil jaaye 

yeh qismat nahiN

ay gham-e-dil kya karooN, 

ay wahshat-e-dil kya karooN

muntazir hei eik tofaan-e-bala 

mere liay

ab bi jane kitne dervazay heiN 

waa mere liay

per museebat hei mera ahd-e-

wafa mere liay

ay gham-e-dil kya karooN, 

ay wahshat-e-dil kya karooN

jee meiN aata hei ab ahd-e-

wafa bi toR dooN

un ko paa sakta hooN yeh 

aasra bi chhoR dooN

haaN munasib hei yeh 

zanjeer-e-hava bi toR dooN

ay gham-e-dil kya karooN, 

ay wahshat-e-dil kya karooN

ik mahal ki aarh se nikala 

woh peela mahtaab

jaise mulla ka amama jaise 

baniye ki kitab jaise muflis 

ki jawani jaise beva ka shabaab 

ay gham-e-dil kya karooN, 

ay wahshat-e-dil kya karooN

dil meiN ik shola bhaRak 

uTha hei aakhir kiya karooN

mera paemaana chhalak uTha 

hei aakhir kiya karooN

zakham seenay ka mehak 

uTha hei aakhir kiya karooN

ay gham-e-dil kya karooN, 

ay wahshat-e-dil kya karooN

jee meiN aata hei murda 

chaand taray nauch looN

iss kinare nauch looN us 

kinare nauch looN

eik du ka zikar kiya saaray 

ke saaray nauch looN 

ay gham-e-dil kya karooN, 

ay wahshat-e-dil kya karooN

muflisi aur yeh mazahir haiN 

nazar ke samane

saikaRoN changez-o-naadir 

haiN nazar ke samane

Saikaron sultan-o-Jabir hain 

nazar ke samne

ay gham-e-dil kya karooN, 

ay wahshat-e-dil kya karooN

le ke eik eik changez ke 

hathooN se khanjar toR dooN

taj per us ke damakta hei jo 

pathar toR dooN

koi toRe ya na toRe meiN 

hi baRh ke toR dooN

ay gham-e-dil kya karooN, 

ay wahshat-e-dil kya karooN

baRh ke is indar'sabha ka 

saz-o-samaan phoonk dooN

iss ka gulshan phoonk dooN 

us ka shabistan phoonk dooN

takhat-e-sultan kya main 

sara qasr-e-sultan phoonk dooN

ay gham-e-dil kya kaooN, 

ay wahshat-e-dil kya karooN...
