tujhse wahshat mein bhi ghafil kab tera diwana tha

tujh se vahshat meñ bhī ġhāfil kab tirā dīvāna thā

dil meñ terī yaad thī lab par tirā afsāna thā

raat jo zāhid sharīk-e-jalsa-e-rindāna thā

thī surāhī ḳhanda-lab gardish meñ har paimāna thā

mai-kada be-jām-e-chashm-e-yār mātam-ḳhāna thā

dīda-e-pur-ḳhūñ mirī āñkhoñ meñ har paimāna thā

ho gayā thā mujh ko jis din se asīrī kā ḳhayāl

merī āñkhoñ meñ to us din se chaman vīrāna thā

bazm-e-sāqī meñ tahī-dastī ne kho dī aabrū

baḳht-e-bad apnā sharīk-e-gardish-e-paimāna thā

maiñ gila qismat kā kartā thā to sote the nasīb

shikva-e-taqdīr bahr-e-ḳhvāb baḳht afsāna thā

baḌh ga.e miTne se tere dushmanoñ ke hausle

ai marīz-e-dard-o-ġham tujh ko abhī marnā na thā

maiñ ne nāhaq hī 'rashīd'-e-zār ko rusvā kiyā

aap ke sar kī qasam vo aap kā dīvāna thā

tujh se wahshat mein bhi ghafil kab tera diwana tha

dil mein teri yaad thi lab par tera afsana tha

raat jo zahid sharik-e-jalsa-e-rindana tha

thi surahi KHanda-lab gardish mein har paimana tha

mai-kada be-jam-e-chashm-e-yar matam-KHana tha

dida-e-pur-KHun meri aankhon mein har paimana tha

ho gaya tha mujh ko jis din se asiri ka KHayal

meri aankhon mein to us din se chaman virana tha

bazm-e-saqi mein tahi-dasti ne kho di aabru

baKHt-e-bad apna sharik-e-gardish-e-paimana tha

main gila qismat ka karta tha to sote the nasib

shikwa-e-taqdir bahr-e-KHwab baKHt afsana tha

baDh gae miTne se tere dushmanon ke hausle

ai mariz-e-dard-o-gham tujh ko abhi marna na tha

main ne nahaq hi 'rashid'-e-zar ko ruswa kiya

aap ke sar ki qasam wo aap ka diwana tha
