Evening of my gloominess is very light

Someone’s remembrance is my delight

It’s wrong I’m apart from the garden

As flowers are yours and fog my plight

Drops on my lashes are not fresh tears

My eyes have always been wet through   

My wish to see every face in high spirits

Never conical; it’s my wish all through

Shared my murky life rarely with myself

Don’t unveil my murky life with myself

Habib Jalib Poetry

Bahut roshan hai shaam-e-ghum humari,
kisi ki yaad hai humdum humari.

Ghalat hai laa-taaluq hain chaman se,
tumhare phool aur shabnam humari.

Ye palkon par naye aansoo nahin hain,
azal se aankh hai purnam humari.

Har ek lab per tabassum dekhne ki,
tamamnna kab hui hai kam humari.

kahi hai hum ne khud se bhi bahut kam,
na poochho daastan-e-ghum humari. !!
