  • Āp Jin Ke Qarīb Hote Haiṅ
    Āp jin ke qarīb hote haiṅ, Vo baṛe ḵẖush-nasīb hote haiṅ. Jab ṭabī‘at kisī pe ātī hai, Maut ke din qarīb hote haiṅ.
  • Vo Ishq Jo Ham Se Ruṭh Gaya.
    Vo ‘ishq jo ham se rūṭh gayā, ab us kā ḥāl batā.eṅ kyā, Koʾī mehr nahīṅ, koʾī qahr nahīṅ, phir sachchā sher sunā.eṅ kyā. Ik hijr jo ham ko lāḥiq hai, tā-der use dohrā.eṅ kyā, Vo zahr jo dil meṅ utār liyā, phir us ke nāz uṭhā.eṅ kyā.
  • Tum Puchho Aur Main Na Bataun
    Tum pūchho aur maiṅ na batāūṅ, aise to ḥālāt nahīṅ, Ek zarā sā dil ṭūṭā hai, aur to koʾī bāt nahīṅ. Kis ko ḵẖabar thī sāṅwle bādal bin barse uṛ jāte haiṅ, Sāvan āyā lekin apnī qismat meṅ barsāt nahīṅ.
  • Milkar Juda Hue
    Milkar judā hue to na soyā kareṅge ham Ek dūsre kī yād meṅ royā kareṅge ham. Āṅsū chhalak chhalak ke satā.eṅge rāt bhar, Motī palak palak meṅ piroyā kareṅge ham.
  • Kiya Hai Pyar Jise
    Kiyā hai pyār jise ham ne zindagī kī tarah, Woh āshnā bhī milā ham se ajnabī kī tarah.
    Baṛhā ke pyās merī us ne hāth chhoṛ diyā, Woh kar rahā thā muravvat bhī dil-lagī kī tarah.
  • Apne Hoṭhon Par Sajana Chahta Hun
    Apne hoṭhoṅ par sajānā chāhtā hūṅ, Ā tujhe main gungunānā chāhtā hūṅ. Ko’ī āṅsū tere dāman par girā kar, Būnd ko motī banānā chāhtā hūṅ.
