halak-e-jafa-o-wafa ho raha hun
ki ek banda-e-be-khuda ho raha hun

nahin ye junun-e-mohabbat nahin hai
main aap aap se aashna ho raha hun

mera har qadam naqsh-e-rah-e-talab hai
teri rah ka rahnuma ho raha hun

udhar karb ki manzilen badh rahi hain
idhar dard-e-dil ki dawa ho raha hun

na chhedo abhi saz-e-ulfat pe naghma
abhi apne dil ki sada ho raha hun

yahi hai yahi shewa-e-ishq hamdam
main khud mubtala-e-jafa ho raha hun

jabin rakh ke saqi ke qadmon mein 'jauhar'
khuda jaane ab kya se kya ho raha hun
