ab to mumkin hi nahin raaz ka pinhan hona

ab to mumkin hī nahīñ raaz kā pinhāñ honā

ho chukā thā jo kuchh ai dīda-e-giryāñ honā

dil-e-barbād meñ yād-e-ruḳh-e-jānāñ honā

is ko kahte haiñ bayābāñ kā gulistāñ honā

vo bhalā kyā kare jam.īyat-e-ḳhātir kī havas

un ko masrūr kare jis kā pareshāñ honā

asl to ye hai ki ushshāq ne ai mālik-e-husn

terī zulfoñ hī se sīkhā hai pareshāñ honā

jab ki duniyā se koī chiiz bhī jā.egī na saath

'vāsif' achchhā to hai phir be-sar-o-sāmāñ honā

ab to mumkin hi nahin raaz ka pinhan hona

ho chuka tha jo kuchh ai dida-e-giryan hona

dil-e-barbaad mein yaad-e-ruKH-e-jaanan hona

is ko kahte hain bayaban ka gulistan hona

wo bhala kya kare jamiyat-e-KHatir ki hawas

un ko masrur kare jis ka pareshan hona

asl to ye hai ki ushshaq ne ai malik-e-husn

teri zulfon hi se sikha hai pareshan hona

jab ki duniya se koi chiz bhi jaegi na sath

'wasif' achchha to hai phir be-sar-o-saman hona
