maut Taltī hai to dil dukhtā hai
jaañ sambhaltī hai to dil dukhtā hai
ḳhvāb jhaḌ jaate haiñ pattoñ kī tarah
rut badaltī hai to dil dukhtā hai
ḳhaak hone kā sila ḳhaak nahīñ
sham.a jaltī hai to dil dukhtā hai
chal chalāo kī haiñ zad par saare
saañs chaltī hai to dil dukhtā hai
chāñd ik maand huā jab se 'shahāb'
raat Dhaltī hai to dil dukhtā hai
