zindagī chaak huī kyā ho rafū kī sūrat
mil ga.ī ḳhaak meñ ab zauq-e-numū kī sūrat
hausle kyā hue chaḌhte hue dariyāoñ ke
regzāroñ meñ kahāñ kho ga.ī jū kī sūrat
ḳhvāhish-e-sīm-badan se huā vahshat kā nuzūl
nashsha-e-jism ne kyā kar dī lahū kī sūrat
dukh-bharī shaam ke neze pe sisakte hue log
zarre zarre se Tapaktī man-o-tū kī sūrat
zā.iqe talḳh hue aañkh se vahshat Tapkī
kaun yaad aayā 'jamāl' aaj adū kī sūrat
