wafa ke nam pe rakkhi hain tohmaten kya kya

wafa ke nam pe rakkhi hain tohmaten kya kya
bigad di hain zamane ne suraten kya kya
hamin pe dosh hai un ki qaza namazon ka
janab-e-shaikh ne dhundin wazahaten kya kya


bade khulus se ek shahr-e-gul ujad liya
hui hain ahl-e-nazar se himaqaten kya kya
fareb-e-sim-o-jawahar hue hain nam-o-numud
khayal-e-yar se uljhi hain zulmaten kya kya


wo mehrban to na tha par khulus bhi na raha
padi hain ghair ki sohbat mein aadaten kya kya
zaban-e-qatil-o-maqtul par hai ek hi nam
khuda ke nam pe guzrin qayamaten kya kya


badha ke halqa-e-rindan ki ranjishen 'khalid'
sitamgaron ne nikali hain hasraten kya kya
