tere jalwon ka wo aalam nahin hai

tire jalvoñ kā vo aalam nahīñ hai

shu.ūr-e-dīd varna kam nahīñ hai

nizām-e-zindagī hai muntashir sā

mizāj-e-yār to barham nahīñ hai

kabhī lazzat-kash-e-rāhat na hoñge

mayassar jin ko terā ġham nahīñ hai

diyā hai ġham zamāne bhar kā mujh ko

ināyat ye bhī terī kam nahīñ hai

hameñ ummīd ho kyoñ kar karam kī

sitam bhī jab tirā paiham nahīñ hai

navāzish ho ga.ī jis par junūñ kī

use duniyā meñ koī ġham nahīñ hai

mayassar hai tirī āñkhoñ kī mastī

mujhe saudā-e-jām-e-jam nahīñ hai

salīqa ho agar jiine kā 'sābir'

hayāt-e-chand-roza kam nahīñ hai

tere jalwon ka wo aalam nahin hai

shuur-e-did warna kam nahin hai

nizam-e-zindagi hai muntashir sa

mizaj-e-yar to barham nahin hai

kabhi lazzat-kash-e-rahat na honge

mayassar jin ko tera gham nahin hai

diya hai gham zamane bhar ka mujh ko

inayat ye bhi teri kam nahin hai

hamein ummid ho kyon kar karam ki

sitam bhi jab tera paiham nahin hai

nawazish ho gai jis par junun ki

use duniya mein koi gham nahin hai

mayassar hai teri aankhon ki masti

mujhe sauda-e-jam-e-jam nahin hai

saliqa ho agar jine ka 'sabir'

hayat-e-chand-roza kam nahin hai
