hamdamo dil ke lagane mein kaho lagta hai kya
par chhuDana is ka mushkil hai lagana sahl hai
Bahadur Shah Zafar
ho gaya jis din se apne dil par us ko iKHtiyar
iKHtiyar apna gaya be-iKHtiyari rah gai
Bahadur Shah Zafar
idhar KHayal mere dil mein zulf ka guzra
udhar wo khata hua dil mein pech-o-tab aaya
Bahadur Shah Zafar
itna na apne jame se bahar nikal ke chal
duniya hai chal-chalaw ka rasta sambhal ke chal
Bahadur Shah Zafar
jo tu ho saf to kuchh main bhi saf tujh se kahun
tere hai dil mein kudurat kahun to kis se kahun
Bahadur Shah Zafar
kah do in hasraton se kahin aur ja basen
itni jagah kahan hai dil-e-dagh-dar mein
tell all my desires to go find another place
in this scarred heart alas there isn't enough space
Bahadur Shah Zafar
KHuda ke waste zahid uTha parda na kabe ka
kahin aisa na ho yan bhi wahi kafir-sanam nikle
Bahadur Shah Zafar
KHwab mera hai ain bedari
main to us mein bhi dekhta kuchh hun
Bahadur Shah Zafar
