kaalī kaalī ghaTā barastī hai
aaj kyā lutf-e-mai-parastī hai
ḳhush lage dil ko kyuuñ na vīrāna
āshiqoñ kī yahī to bastī hai
aaj mahfil meñ ye ḳhayāl rahe
kis kī jānib se pesh-dastī hai
jab ki is kā bhī hai ma.aal yahī
mai-parastī bhī fāqa-mastī hai
ek tīr-e-nazar idhar maaro
dil tarastā hai jaañ tarastī hai
bosa miltā hai jaan ke badle
'mashriqī' ḳhuub jins sastī hai
