tumhaari aarzu tum se kahin badh kar hasin nikli
ki duniya ki har ek shai se yahi dil ke qarin nikli

main samjha yaad bhi tark-e-talluq par to aaegi
magar jab dil tatola hai wahin ye jaguzin nikli

abhi kuchh aur bhi khelo mere chahat bhare dil se
abhi bhi zakhm kam kam hain abhi hasrat nahin nikli

sar-e-mahfil kiya ruswa mujhe teri mohabbat ne
jhuki jo nam par tere wo meri hi jabin nikli

nigahon ne tujhe dhunda tujhe dil se pukara hai
nazar aai na jo surat wo surat dil-nashin nikli

hai do hi din ki umr-e-gul magar zinda-dili dekho
tabassum lab pe raqsan hai faza hargiz nahin nikli

jahan par sarhaden dair-o-haram ki khatm hoti hain
wahin par nur-e-iman hai wahin rah-e-yaqin nikli

hamari zindagi dariya ki mauj-e-muztarib si hai
kahin ubhri kahin machli kahin dubi kahin nikli

utha karti hain maujon ki tarah hi hasraten dil mein
nai kitni ubhar aaen jo ek hasrat kahin nikli

shab-e-furqat 'habib' apna na koi kaam ka nikla
na aansu ba-asar nikle na aah-e-atishin nikli
