jab se nazar se dur wo pyare chale gae
wo sham wo sahar wo nazare chale gae

rasm-e-wafa na pyar ki pahli si rit hai
jaane kahan wo prit ke dhaare chale gae

hum khelte hi rah gae tufan-o-mauj se
aa aa ke pas dur kinare chale gae

manzil ki dhun mein rahi ne dekha na ek nazar
dilkash maqam karte ishaare chale gae

aatish-fishan sa sina bhi ab sard ho gaya
shoale chale gae wo sharare chale gae

suna hai husn aur fazaen udas hain
mahfil se jab wo ishq ke mare chale gae

sauda nahin ye ishq ki bazi hai be-khabar
jite wahi jahan mein jo haare chale gae

dair-o-haram se dur tere aastan se dur
hum rahguzar mein raat guzare chale gae

mahfil badhao shama ko bhi gul karo ki ab
wo dost wo 'habib' wo pyare chale gae
