hadis-e-dil-baran hai aur main hun
jahan-andar-jahan hai aur main hun

mudawa-e-gham-e-furqat nahin kuchh
bas un ki dastan hai aur main hun

na hamdam hai na koi ham-nawan hai
dil apna raazdan hai aur main hun

bhari mahfil mein bhi baitha hun tanha
mera dard-e-nihan hai aur main hun

nahin dard-ashna jis se kahun kuchh
mere munh mein zaban hai aur main hun

bahaar aai chaman mein aai hogi
yahan daur-e-khizan hai aur main hun

nahin baqi wo naghma aur tarana
bas ek hu ka saman hai aur main hun

na wo saqi na wo ham-mashrab apne
jumud-e-mai-kashan hai aur main hun

kabhi is dil ki zad mein tha zamana
ab ek utri kaman hai aur main hun

nahin mohlat ki dam bhar mud ke dekhun
meri umr-e-rawan hai aur main hun

na khud apna na apne hain shab-o-roz
raza-e-digaran hai aur main hun

hua bezar naqus-e-azan se
fareb-e-in-o-an hai aur main hun

kabhi ka jal chuka go aashiyana
khayal-e-ashiyan hai aur main hun

'habib' ab zindagi ki sham aai
gham-e-sud-o-ziyan hai aur main hun
