ishq jab mail-ba-ulfat ho gaya
husn paband-e-hidayat ho gaya

tum ne kya ek bar surat dekh li
aaina bhi khubsurat ho gaya

tum ne jab dahliz par rakkha qadam
bas wo lamha shubh mahurat ho gaya

jaante hain wo sanwarne ka hunar
har musawwir mahw-e-hairat ho gaya

kaam par jaane laga mazdur bap
ahl-e-khana ki zarurat ho gaya

farq jab uttha to diwaren uthi
aasman itna jhuka chhat ho gaya

bat gaya 'rashid' dilon mein jab samaj
dusron ka ranj rahat ho gaya
