pa ke ek tera tabassum muskurai kaenat

jhum uTTha wo bhi dil jine se jo bezar tha

nik.hat vahī surūr vahī dil-kashī vahī

aamad ye aap hai ki jhoñkā bahār

nikhat wahi surur wahi dil-kashi wahi

aamad ye aap ki hai ki jhonka bahaar ka

dil TuuT ke āḳhir bantā hai kisī qābil

taḳhrīb ke parde meñ ta.amīr nazar aa.ī

dil TuT ke hi aaKHir banta hai kisi qabil

taKHrib ke parde mein tamir nazar aai

terī yādoñ sarmāyā liye baiThe haiñ

ham kabhī be-sar-o-sāmān na hone paa.e

teri yaadon ka hi sarmaya liye baiThe hain

hum kabhi be-sar-o-saman na hone pae

TuuT jaate haiñ jo duniyā ke sahāre saare

ham kahīñ hote haiñ afsāna kahīñ hotā hai

haal-e-dil kahte hi aa jati hai jab yaad un ki

hum kahin hote hain afsana kahin hota hai

ḳhayāl-e-yār ke raushan diye karo varna

añdherī raat meñ manzil e'tibār nahīñ

KHayal-e-yar ke raushan diye karo warna

andheri raat mein manzil ka e'tibar nahin

haiñ sab ye tire shikve kotāhī-e-ulfat se

ġham daulat to magar tum se luTā.ī na ga.ī

donon hathon se masarrat ko luTaya hai 'habib'

gham ki daulat to magar tum se luTai na gai

apnā ye charāġh-e-dil maddham sahī lekin

duniyā ke añdheroñ se tanhā ye laḌtā hai

apna ye charagh-e-dil maddham hi sahi lekin

duniya ke andheron se tanha hi ye laDta hai

aql-e-insāñ ne biThā rakkhe haiñ pahre dil par

dil kyā baat kahegā jo na dīvāna bane

andāz muqaddar ke haiñ gesū-e-jānāñ se

jo gaah ulajhte haiñ aur gaah sañvarte haiñ

andaz muqaddar ke hain gesu-e-jaanan se

jo gah ulajhte hain aur gah sanwarte hain

'habīb' ḳhud banā.eñge roz-o-shab apne

jab thake hathon se patwar bhi gir jate hain

ain girdab mein hota hai kinara paida

jahāñ kahīñ bhī koī dil-figār hotā hai

vahīñ pe sāya-e-parvardigār hotā hai

jahan kahin bhi koi dil-figar hota hai

wahin pe saya-e-parwardigar hota hai

insāñ ke dard-o-ġham kahīñ zikr nahīñ

hai baat shaiḳh to kabhī barhaman baat

insan ke dard-o-gham ka kahin zikr hi nahin

hai baat shaiKH ki to kabhi barhaman ki baat

vo naala jo siine se na aayā kabhī lab tak

hañgāmoñ meñ duniyā ke use ne sunā hai

wo nala jo sine se na aaya kabhi lab tak

hangamon mein duniya ke use tu ne suna hai

nālāñ huuñ apne zauq-e-nazar se 'habīb' kyoñ

kyā sah rahe haiñ qalb-o-jigar kuchh na pūchhiye

nalan hun apne zauq-e-nazar se 'habib' kyon

kya sah rahe hain qalb-o-jigar kuchh na puchhiye

magar ye raaz koi KHal-KHal hi jaane

kisī ke javoñ se ma.amūr hai jahāñ apnā

kisi ke jawon se mamur hai jahan apna

nahin ye fikr ki duniya ne sath chhoD diya

jab aap nazar mujh par kuchh lutf se karte haiñ

bedad-e-muqaddar se dil mera ulajhta hai

jab aap nazar mujh par kuchh lutf se karte hain

gul kabhī to muntaḳhab-e-rozgār thā

ḳhāroñ pe ab to aayā hai mausam bahār

gul hi kabhi to muntaKHab-e-rozgar tha

KHaron pe ab to aaya hai mausam bahaar ka

maqtal to hoñge aaj bhī mansūr haiñ kahāñ

ab zeb-e-dāstān hai dār-o-rasan kahāñ

maqtal to honge aaj bhi mansur hain kahan

ab zeb-e-dastan hai dar-o-rasan kahan

har ik fasurda qalb pe chhā.ī shaguftagī

jab chhiḌ ga.ī hai bazm meñ us gul-badan baat

har ek fasurda qalb pe chhai shaguftagi

jab chhiD gai hai bazm mein us gul-badan ki baat

dil-kashī tere tasavvur rahī roz-afzūñ

bāhamī rabt har chand vo naqsha na rahā

dil-kashi tere tasawwur ki rahi roz-afzun

bahami rabt ka har chand wo naqsha na raha

shab-e-ġham 'habīb' shikva kyoñ

dekh vo pau phaTī vo raat aa.ī

shab-e-gham ka 'habib' shikwa kyon

dekh wo pau phaTi wo raat aai
