Dil Hi To Hai Na Sang-o-Khisht

Dil Hi To Hai Na Sang-o-Khisht 
Dard Se Bhar Na Aaye Kiyun,

Royein Ge Hum hazaar baar koi 
hamein sataye kiyun,

Dair nahi, haram nahi, 
dar nahi, aastan nahi,

Baithe hain Rah-guzar pe hum 
ghair humein uthaye kiyun,

Jab Wo Jamaal-e-dil-Faroz, 
Soorat-e-Mehar-E-Neemroz,

Aap hi ho Nazaara-soz, parde mein 
Moonh chhupaye kiyun ?

Dushna-- ghamzah jaansataan,
naawik-e- naaz be-panah

Tera hi aqsi rukh sahi, 
saamne tere aaye kiyun ?

Qaid e hayat o band e gham 
asl mein donon ek hain,

Maut se pehle admi 
gham se Nijaat paye kiyun,

Husn aur uspe husn e zan, 
reh gayi bul hawas ki sharam

Apne pe aitmaad hai, 
ghair ko aazmayen kyun?

Waan wo ghuroor e azzo naaz, 
yaan ye hijab e paas e waza

Raah mein hum milen kahaan?
bazm mein woh bulaye kyun?

Haan wo nahi kkhuda parast 
jao wo bewafa sahi

Jisko ho din o dil azeez 
uski gali mein jaye kyon?

Ghalib e khasta ke baghair 
kaun se kaam band hain

roiye zar zar kyaa
kijiye hai hai kyon ?
