main raaz-e-gham-e-ishq se begana nahin hun
diwana mujhe kahte hain diwana nahin hun

aisa hun piyala jo mohabbat se hai labrez
bhar kar jo chhalak jae wo paimana nahin hun

wo soz-e-mohabbat hun jo pinhan rahe dil mein
aa jae jo lab par main wo afsana nahin hun

main aarzu-e-did mein ghulta hun shab-o-roz
jo shama pe jal jae wo parwana nahin hun

ab jada-e-ulfat mein junun rah-numa hai
gum-gashta-e-manzil ho wo farzana nahin hun

pur-kaif mai-e-ishq se paimana-e-dil hai
sad-shukr ki ab tishna-e-khum-khana nahin hun

dagh-e-dil-e-majruh hai ham-rang-e-gulistan
jalwon ka khazana hun main virana nahin hun

khud qalb mera jalwa-gah-e-husn-e-azal hai
ai 'zabt' main joya-e-sanam-khana nahin hun
