mujh ko manzur hai marne pe subuk-bari ho
aur ahbab ko hai fikr kafan bhaari ho

zindagi mein na mila zakhm-e-jigar ko marham
khair chadar hi meri qabr ki zangari ho

yaad hai roz-e-azal dil jo garan hai kya gham
main ne khud kah ke liya tha ki zara bhaari ho

aatish-e-husn jawanan-e-chaman bhadka de
jo gul-e-surkh ki patti ho wo chingari ho

teri rahmat ke sahaare pe gina karta hun
tark kar dun agar is mein bhi gunah-gari ho

mujh siyahkar ki hai mohr to uthti nahin mehr
mere allah na itni bhi giran-bari ho

aaj-kal pas hai phir naqd-e-dil-e-zar 'rashid'
phir kisi ghairat-e-yusuf ki kharidari ho
