kharab-haal wafa ko rulae jate hain
nazar churae hue muskurae jate hain

wafa-shiar sahi ghair mujh se kyon kahiye
ye roz kis liye qisse sunae jate hain

wafa ki qadar teri anjuman mein kyon hoti
fareb-e-ghair ke naqshe jamae jate hain

tum apne husn pe nazan ho aur ahl-e-nazar
dil-e-kharab ki qimat badhae jate hain

kise khabar hai ki anjam-e-arzu kya ho
nasib-e-ishq-o-wafa aazmae jate hain

kabhi to ishq-o-hawas mein bhi chahiye ye tamiz
isi ummid pe sadme uthae jate hain

khiram-e-naz ki hashr-afriniyan tauba
qadam qadam pe qayamat uthae jate hain

ab un ki yaad ko kyon kar bhulaiye dil se
ki resha resha mein wo to samae jate hain

suna hai ab to hain 'razmi' bhi baryab-e-jamal
us anjuman mein hamesha bulae jate hain
