had-e-junun se bhi aage gae hain diwane
milegi manzil-e-maqsud kab khuda jaane

kiye hain tu ne munawwar dilon ke kashane
tere wajud se aabaad hain sanam-khane

jo tum na the to bahaaren khizan se bad-tar thin
tum aa gae to chaman ban gae ye virane

shab-e-firaq hujum-e-gham-o-alam ke tufail
tumhaari yaad chali aai dil ko bahlane

tamam umr rahi yun hi chaak-damani
chale hain ahl-e-khirad aaj mujh ko samjhane

'habab' ashk-e-nadamat hain un ki aankhon mein
qubul kije khulus-o-wafa ke nazrane
