aa ki merii jaan men qaraar nahiin hai

aa ki merii jaan men qaraar nahiin hai

taaqat-e-bedaad-e-intazaar nahiin hai

dete hain jannat hayaat-e-dahar ke badale

nashshaa baa_andaazaa-e-Khumaar nahiin hai

giriyaa nikaale hai terii bazm se mujh ko

haaye! ki rone pe iKhtiyaar nahiin hai

ham se abas hai gumaan-e-ranjish-e-Khaatir

Khaak men ushshaq kii Gubaar nahiin hai

dil se uThaa lutf-e-jalvaa haaye ma_anii

Gair-e-gul aa_iinaa-e-bahaar nahiin hai

qatl kaa mere kiyaa hai ahad to baare

vaaye! agar ahad ustavaar nahiin hai

tuu ne qasam mai_kashii kii khaa_ii hai 'Ghalib'

terii qasam ka kuchh aitabaar nahiin hai
