kya kya ajal ne jaan churai tamam shab
koi bhi aarzu na bar aai tamam shab
dil-soz kab hue hain ki jab khaak ho gaya
turbat pe meri shama jalai tamam shab
ai va-e-talkh-kami-e-roz-e-bad-firaq
naseh ne jan-e-gham-zada khaai tamam shab
az-bas yaqin-e-vada-e-didar-e-khvab tha
kya khush hue ki niind na aai tamam shab
ik ah-e-dil-nashin se vo but munfail hua
vallah kya nadamat uthai tamam shab
lagte hi aankh dekh liya jalva-e-nihan
pesh-e-nazar thi shan-e-khudai tamam shab
