husn ki ranginiyon ka zikr har mahfil mein hai
shauq ka tufan nihan lekin sukut-e-dil mein hai

rahguzar bhi rah-rau bhi rahbar bhi dil sada
gar kisi manzil mein hai to shauq ki manzil mein hai

tum ne dekha hai tabassum rang aur ranaiyan
zakhm bhi dekha kabhi jo phul ke bhi dil mein hai

wo bhi majbur-e-wafa hai main bhi majbur-e-wafa
main bhi kis mushkil mein hun aur wo bhi kis mushkil mein hai

wo tabassum wo nigah aur wo adaen khas khas
raushni kin kin charaghon ki na jaane dil mein hai

ta-dam-e-akhir rahenge hasraton ke silsile
ek hasrat dil se nikli ek hasrat dil mein hai

chal raha hun main agarche karwan ke sath
ek tanhai ka aalam har qadam par dil mein hai

rahne do lahron pe meri kashti-e-kuhna 'habib'
khugar-e-tufan ki turbat ek kaf-e-sahil mein hai
