hazaron bar kah kar bewafa ko ba-wafa maine
hazāroñ baar kah kar bevafā ko bā-vafā maiñ ne
batāyā hai zamāne ko vafā kā rāsta maiñ ne
baḌī izzat se ahl-e-jurm merā naam lete haiñ
gunahgāroñ ko ik din kah diyā thā pārsā maiñ ne
tum apne aap ko kuchh bhī kaho maz.hab ke dīvāno
na dekhā koī tum jaisā ḳhudā-nā-āshnā maiñ ne
jalā kar zulmat-e-bātil meñ haq kī mish.aleñ yaaro
zamāne ko banāyā hai haqīqat-āshnā maiñ ne
ġharaz dair o haram se hai na matlab hai kalīsā se
jahāñ jalva nazar aayā tirā sajda kiyā maiñ ne
bahut hī mo'tabar huuñ kyuuñ ki maiñ raahī huuñ ai 'rāhī'
qasam le lo agar ḳhud ko kahā ho rahnumā maiñ ne
hazaron bar kah kar bewafa ko ba-wafa main ne
bataya hai zamane ko wafa ka rasta main ne
baDi izzat se ahl-e-jurm mera nam lete hain
gunahgaron ko ek din kah diya tha parsa main ne
tum apne aap ko kuchh bhi kaho mazhab ke diwano
na dekha koi tum jaisa KHuda-na-ashna main ne
jala kar zulmat-e-baatil mein haq ki mishalen yaro
zamane ko banaya hai haqiqat-ashna main ne
gharaz dair o haram se hai na matlab hai kalisa se
jahan jalwa nazar aaya tera sajda kiya main ne
bahut hi mo'tabar hun kyun ki main rahi hun ai 'rahi'
qasam le lo agar KHud ko kaha ho rahnuma main ne
