tum ko apna shumar karte hain
dida-o-dil nisar karte hain

un ka mashq-e-sitam rahe jari
jin ko hum dil se pyar karte hain

hum se to bad-guman rahe to rahe
hum tera eatibar karte hain

hum banate hain phul kanton ko
aap phulon ko khar karte hain

aap ko shauq hai to mazhab hum
ishq ka ikhtiyar karte hain

hum juda tum se rah nahin sakte
rishta phir ustuwar karte hain

bakhshi 'khushtar' ko dard ki daulat
shukr-e-parwardigar karte hain
