Tark-e-sitam pe wo jo qasam kha ke rah gae

tark-e-sitam pe wo jo qasam kha ke rah gae
arman dil mein arz-e-tamanna ke rah gae

tum kahte kahte hum se jo sharma ke rah gae
kya baat thi jo ta-ba zaban la ke rah gae

deta hai sath kaun kisi ka pas-e-fana
sab dost ta lahad mujhe pahuncha ke rah gae

ya main ne rah-e-ishq-o-wafa se gurez ki
ya ham-nafas mere mujhe samjha ke rah gae

achchha hua na un ka mariz-e-shab-e-firaq
sab mojaze janab-e-masiha ke rah gae

duniya se jaane walon ka koi pata nahin
ya rab mere ye log kahan ja ke rah gae

kya un se uTh sakengi mohabbat ki saKHtiyan
jo panw rah-e-ishq mein phaila ke rah gae

taqdir mein qafas ho to kya is se faeda
do din agar chaman ki hawa kha ke rah gae

phirte ho ai 'rashid' jo tum us ke sath sath
ban kar ghulam kya dil-e-shaida ke rah gae
