Aaj ashkon ka taar Tuut gaya
rishtaa-e-intazaar Tuut gaya
Yun wo Thukaraa ke chal diye goya
ik khilaunaa thaa pyaar, Tuut gaya
Roye reh-reh kar hichkiyaan lekar
saaz-e-Gam baar baar Tuut gaya
[saaz = musical instrument]
Aap ki berukhi kaa shikavaa kya
dil thaa naapaaidaar, Tuut gaya
[naapaaidaar = weak/delicate]
Dekh li dil ne besabaatii-e-gul
phir tilism-e-bahaar Tuut gaya
[besabaatii-e-gul = mortality/short life span of a flower]
[tilism-e-bahaar = (magic)spell of spring]
'Saif' kyaa chaar din ki ranjish se
itni muddat ka pyaar Tuut gaya ?
