shauq ki kam-nigahi bhi hai gawara mujh ko
gham to gham aaj khushi bhi hai gawara mujh ko

justuju sath hai sham-e-rah-e-manzil ban kar
apni be-rah-rawi bhi hai gawara mujh ko

lazzat-e-zist ba-har-taur sabhi ko hai aziz
zahr-e-mina-e-khudi bhi hai gawara mujh ko

sozan-e-rahm-o-karam karti hai kyun sai-e-rafu
chaak-daman-e-tahi bhi hai gawara mujh ko

aap lillah na farmaen ziyaada zahmat
ab tawajjoh ki kami bhi hai gawara mujh ko

sirf tar-damani-e-dil hi pe israr nahin
chashm-e-pur-nam ki kami bhi hai gawara mujh ko

jurat-e-arz-e-tamanna se hun bad-zan 'yaqub'
zabt ki kam-sukhani bhi hai gawara mujh ko
