hai be-ḳhud vasl meñ dil hijr meñ muztar sivā hogā
ḳhushī jis ghar kī aisī hai vahāñ kā rañj kyā hogā
abhī to yaar se kahne kī dil meñ bāteñ haiñ lākhoñ
na kuchh yaad aa.egā us vaqt jis dam sāmnā hogā
mire madfan kī miTTī kā vo khichvā.eñge itr aksar
agar bū-e-vafā kā un ke dil meñ kuchh mazā hogā
vo gesū baḌhte jaate haiñ balā.eñ hotī haiñ nāzil
qadam tak aa ga.e jab hashr aalam meñ bapā hogā
ġhazab karte ho mere dil ko abrū se chhuḌāte ho
bhalā samjho to kyūñkar gosht nāḳhun se judā hogā
adam meñ merā kyā kyā dam rukegā ek muddat tak
na.ī bastī na.ī poshāk hogī ghar nayā hogā
utārā ḳhuun ke dariyā se hogā sarfaroshoñ kā
banegī teġh kashtī aur qātil nāḳhudā hogā
bayāñ thā roz-e-avval ye mire dil kī udāsī kā
baḌī us ghar kī ābādī ye hai mātam-sarā hogā
ḳhabar le bāġhbāñ hai kis ġhazab kā habs gulshan meñ
havā hai band asīrān-e-qafas kā dam rukā hogā
mire siine se dil ke TūTne kī kyuuñ sadā aa.ī
magar yaañ haath se saaqī ke shīsha gir paḌā hogā
sitamgar aa.egā aksar ḳhabar lene ko zindāñ meñ
hameñ vo beḌiyāñ pahnā ke pāband-e-vafā hogā
raqīboñ kī umīdoñ ko jagah dete haiñ dil meñ ham
ki un meñ se koī āḳhir hamārā mudda.ā hogā
nahīñ hai jis meñ terā ishq vo dil hai tabāhī meñ
vo kashtī Duub jā.egī na jis meñ nāḳhudā hogā
'rashīd' ulfat se jab vāqif na the aksar ye kahte the
na dil se ham judā hoñge na ham se dil judā hogā
hai be-KHud wasl mein dil hijr mein muztar siwa hoga
KHushi jis ghar ki aisi hai wahan ka ranj kya hoga
abhi to yar se kahne ki dil mein baaten hain lakhon
na kuchh yaad aaega us waqt jis dam samna hoga
mere madfan ki miTTi ka wo khichwaenge itr aksar
agar bu-e-wafa ka un ke dil mein kuchh maza hoga
wo gesu baDhte jate hain balaen hoti hain nazil
qadam tak aa gae jab hashr aalam mein bapa hoga
ghazab karte ho mere dil ko abru se chhuDate ho
bhala samjho to kyunkar gosht naKHun se juda hoga
adam mein mera kya kya dam rukega ek muddat tak
nai basti nai poshak hogi ghar naya hoga
utara KHun ke dariya se hoga sarfaroshon ka
banegi tegh kashti aur qatil naKHuda hoga
bayan tha roz-e-awwal ye mere dil ki udasi ka
baDi us ghar ki aabaadi ye hai matam-sara hoga
KHabar le baghban hai kis ghazab ka habs gulshan mein
hawa hai band asiran-e-qafas ka dam ruka hoga
mere sine se dil ke TuTne ki kyun sada aai
magar yan hath se saqi ke shisha gir paDa hoga
sitamgar aaega aksar KHabar lene ko zindan mein
hamein wo beDiyan pahna ke paband-e-wafa hoga
raqibon ki umidon ko jagah dete hain dil mein hum
ki un mein se koi aaKHir hamara muddaa hoga
nahin hai jis mein tera ishq wo dil hai tabahi mein
wo kashti Dub jaegi na jis mein naKHuda hoga
'rashid' ulfat se jab waqif na the aksar ye kahte the
na dil se hum juda honge na hum se dil juda hoga
