chāñd kab se hai sar-e-shāḳh-e-sanobar aTkā
ghaas shabnam meñ sharābor hai shab hai aadhī
ye baḌā chāñd chamaktā huā chehra khole
baiThā rahtā hai sar-e-bām-e-shabistāñ shab ko
kis se is dard-e-judā.ī kī shikāyat kahiye
yaañ to siine meñ niystāñ kā niystāñ hogā
jī meñ aatī hai ki kamre meñ bulā leñ is ko
chāñd kab se hai sar-e-shāḳh-e-sanobar aTkā
