tere jaur-o-jafa ka hum kabhi shikwa nahin karte
mohabbat jis se karte hain use ruswa nahin karte

hamare shewa-e-taslim ki bhi qadr kar tu kuchh
ki fariyaad-o-fughan aah-o-buka nala nahin karte

mohabbat mein bhi hum mear ka kuchh pas rakhte hain
kisi haalat mein bhi khuddari ka sauda nahin karte

mohabbat karne walon ka alag ek apna mazhab hai
wo rah-e-ishq mein sud-o-ziyan dekha nahin karte

raqibon ko sar-e-mahfil jo bazu mein bithate hain
dil-azari meri karte hain aap achchha nahin karte

hai poshida yahan bhi apni izzat hi ka ek pahlu
kisi se bad-suluki ka teri charcha nahin karte

gawara ehtiyat aisi mohabbat mein hai 'khushtar' ko
ki us ke nam se mansub sher apna nahin karte
