lab-ba-lab bint-ul-anab har-dam rahe

tu wo hindostan mein lala hai

sharten jo bandagi mein lagana rawa hua

TuTe jo dant munh ki shabahat bigaD gai

jo murgh-e-qibla-numa ban ke aashiyan se chale

jon sabza rahe ugte hi pairon ke tale hum

jis ke hum bimar hain gham ne use bhi randa hai

sada rang-e-mina chamakta raha

kya kahun ghuncha-e-gul nim-dahan hai kuchh aur

gar junun kar mujhe paband-e-salasil jata

ghairon mein hina wo mal raha hai

dil ki kahun ya kahun jigar ki

humne bandhe hain us pe kya kya joD

jaan ya dil nazr karna chahiye

KHat dekhiye didar ki sujhi ye nai hai
