haal-e-dil mai.n ne jo duniyaa ko sunaanaa chaahaa
mujh ko har shaKhs ne dil apanaa dikhaanaa chaahaa

[shaKhs = person]

apanii tasviir banaane ke liye duniyaa me.n
mai.n ne har rang pe ik rang cha.Dhaanaa chaahaa

Khaak-e-dil jauhar-e-aa_iinaa ke kaam aa hii ga_ii
laakh duniyaa ne nigaaho.n se giraanaa chaahaa

sholaa-e-barq se gulashan ko bachaane ke liye
mai.n ne har aag ko siine me.n chhupaanaa chaahaa

[sholaa-e-barq = spark of lightning; gulashan = garden]

apane aibo.n ko chhupaane ke liye duniyaa me.n
mai.n ne har shaKhs pe ilzaam lagaanaa chaahaa

Gairat-e-mauj use phe.nk ga_ii saahil par
Duubane vaale ne jab shor machaanaa chaahaa
