Mehfily may kasha, kocha-e dilbara

Mehfily may kasha, kocha-e dilbara

har jaga ho lieye ab chaly kaha

Maslihat chati hy ke manzil mily

or dil dhondta hy koi karwa-n

Chandi bhi meri tarah herat may hy

chup gia koi awaz dy kar kaha

Jani pehchani hy har ada, har nazar

ha-n magar ye ny yad ke dekha kaha

Raat yon gham ny phir dil may awaz di

jesy sehrah ki masjid may shab ki aza-n

Gird urd urd ke muin apna dekha kary

rakhi hy rah may aeyno ki duka-n

Kuch tu may bhi dil ka kamzor ho

kuch mohabat bhi hy fitratan badguma

Tazkira koi ho zikar tera raha

awal-o-akharsh, darmiyan darmiyan

Jany kis des sy dil may a jaty hy

chandni raat may dard ke karwa-n

Darmiya-n may na laeyn khuda ko hum bhi

bas wahi wo sy jis ki hy dasta-n

Badar sshab idhar ka na rukh kejeye

wali, lahore may shehar jadogara-n
