dil-e-tanha mein ab ehsas-e-mahrumi nahin shayad
dil-e-tanhā meñ ab ehsās-e-mahrūmī nahīñ shāyad
tirī duurī bhī ab dil ke liye duurī nahīñ shāyad
jahāñ din meñ añdherā ho vahāñ rātoñ kā kyā kahnā
yahāñ ke chāñd sūraj meñ chamak hotī nahīñ shāyad
maiñ jab bistar se uThtā huuñ to yuuñ mahsūs hotā hai
mire andar kī duniyā raat bhar sotī nahīñ shāyad
ye kis sahrā ke kis goshe meñ ḳhema taan baiThe haiñ
kisī bhī samt koī rahguzar jaatī nahīñ shāyad
ham apnī zindagī kī dhuup meñ tapne ke aadī haiñ
hameñ ThanDī havā barsoñ se raas aatī nahīñ shāyad
'habīb' is zindagī ke pech-o-ḳham se ham bhī nālāñ haiñ
hameñ jhūTe nagīnoñ kī chamak bhātī nahīñ shāyad
dil-e-tanha mein ab ehsas-e-mahrumi nahin shayad
teri duri bhi ab dil ke liye duri nahin shayad
jahan din mein andhera ho wahan raaton ka kya kahna
yahan ke chand suraj mein chamak hoti nahin shayad
main jab bistar se uThta hun to yun mahsus hota hai
mere andar ki duniya raat bhar soti nahin shayad
ye kis sahra ke kis goshe mein KHema tan baiThe hain
kisi bhi samt koi rahguzar jati nahin shayad
hum apni zindagi ki dhup mein tapne ke aadi hain
hamein ThanDi hawa barson se ras aati nahin shayad
'habib' is zindagi ke pech-o-KHam se hum bhi nalan hain
hamein jhuTe naginon ki chamak bhati nahin shayad
