mere saqiya mujhe bhul ja
mere dilruba mujhe bhul ja

na wo dil raha na wo ji raha
na wo daur-e-aish-o-khushi raha

na wo rabt-o-zabt-e-dili raha
na wo auj-e-tishna-labi raha

na wo zauq-e-baada-kashi raha
main alam-nawaz hun aaj-kal

main shikasta-saz hun aaj-kal
main sarapa raaz hun aaj-kal

mujhe ab khayal mein bhi na mila
mujhe bhul ja mujhe bhul ja

mujhe zindagi se aziz-tar
faqat ek teri hi zat thi

teri har nigah mere liye
sabab-e-sukun-e-hayat thi

meri dastan-e-wafa kabhi
teri sharh-e-husn-e-sifat thi

magar ab to rang hi aur hai
na wo tarz hai na wo taur hai

ye sitam bhi qabil-e-ghaur hai
tujhe apne husn ka wasta

mujhe bhul ja mujhe bhul ja
qasam iztirab-e-hayat ki

mujhe khamushi mein qarar hai
mere sahn-e-gulshan-e-ishq mein

na khizan hai ab na bahaar hai
yahi dil tha raunaq-e-anjuman

yahi dil charagh-e-mazar hai
mujhe ab sukun-e-digar na de

mujhe ab nawed-e-sahar na de
mujhe ab fareb-e-nazar na de

na ho wahm-e-ishq mein mubtala
mujhe bhul ja mujhe bhul ja
