Lyrics / Poetry [both Roman and Traditional Urdu]

Aah Ko Chahiye Ik Umr Asar Honay Tak

Kaun Jita Hai Teri Zulf Ke Sar Honay Tak

Daam Har Mauj Main Hai Halqa Sad-Kaam-E-Nahang

Dekhe Kya Guzre Hai Qatre Pe Gauhar Honay Tak

Aashiqi Sabr Talab Aur Tamanna Betaab

Dil Ka Kya Rang Karon Khoon-E-Jigar Honay Tak

Hum Ne Maana Ke Taghaaful Na Karoge Lekin

Khaak Ho Jaayenge Hum Turn Ko Khabar Honay Tak

Partav-E-Khoor Se Hai Shab-Nam Ko Fana Ki Taalim

Main Bhi Hon Ek Inayat Ki Nazar Honay Tak

Yak Nazar Besh Nahi Fursat-E-Hasti Ghafil

Garmi-E-Bazm Hai Ek Raqs-E-Sharar Honay Tak

Gham-E-Hasti Ka Asad Kis Se Ho Juz Marg-E-Ilaj

Shama Har Rang Main Jalti Hai Sahar Honay Tak
