qarīb-e-āḳhir-e-shab hai mire gale lag jaao
vidā-e-shām-e-tarab hai mire gale lag jaao
ab ek umr judā.ī ke fāsle hoñge
bas ek vaqfa-e-shab hai mire gale lag jaao
gila-guzār-e-zamāna huuñ tum ḳhafā kyuuñ ho
gila to husn-e-talab hai mire gale lag jaao
tamām umr jo rah rah ke yaad aa.egī
yahī vo sā.at-e-shab hai mire gale lag jaao
dayār-e-ġhair meñ tum ko kahāñ maiñ DhūñDūñgā
ye ḳhatm-e-ahd-e-tarab hai mire gale lag jaao
