azal se justuju ki sargirani le ke aaya hun
talash-e-husn hai shama-e-jawani le ke aaya hun

teri mahfil se hasrat ki nishani le ke aaya hun
wafa ki aarzu thi sargirani le ke aaya hun

jahan main zauq-e-husn-e-jawedani le ke aaya hun
kahan ki kis kharabe mein kahani le ke aaya hun

meri hasti zamane ke mitae se nahin mitti
azal se main nishan-e-be-nishani le ke aaya hun

meri khamosh surat aaina-dar-e-mohabbat hai
main aaine se husn-e-be-zabani le ke aaya hun

bhadak utthun na khud apni nawa-e-shoala-saman se
khas-o-khashak mein shola-bayani le ke aaya hun

mohabbat ko to umr-e-jawedan bhi mukhtasar hogi
ilahi kya karun main umr-e-fani le ke aaya hun

'zafar' kya tab lae koi tufan-e-mohabbat ki
hawa ke samne shama-e-e-jawani le ke aaya hun
