dhund ujde hue logon men vafa ke moti ye khazane tujhe mumkin hai kharabon men milen

seek ye pearls of faithfulness in those lost and drowned it well could be these treasures in wastelands do abound

anjam-e-vafa ye hai jis ne bhi mohabbat ki marne ki dua mangi jiine ki saza paai

ulfat men barabar hai vafa ho ki jafa ho har baat men lazzat hai agar dil men maza ho

vafa ikhlas qurbani mohabbat ab in lafzon ka pichha kyuun karen ham

vafa jis se ki bevafa ho gaya jise but banaya khuda ho gaya

i was constant but she eschewed fidelity the one i idolized, alas, claimed divinity

kyuun pasheman ho agar vaada vafa ho na saka kahin vaade bhi nibhane ke liye hote hain

agahi karb vafa sabr tamanna ehsas mere hi siine men utre hain ye khanjar saare

dushmanon ki jafa ka khauf nahin doston ki vafa se darte hain

i do nor fear injury from my enemies what frightens me is my friend's fidelities

duniya ke sitam yaad na apni hi vafa yaad ab mujh ko nahin kuchh bhi mohabbat ke siva yaad

vafa ki khair manata huun bevafai men bhi main us ki qaid men huun qaid se rihai men bhi

ummid to bandh jaati taskin to ho jaati vaada na vafa karte vaada to kiya hota

vo ummid kya jis ki ho intiha vo vaada nahin jo vafa ho gaya

vo kahte hain har chot par muskurao vafa yaad rakkho sitam bhuul jaao

kaam aa sakin na apni vafaen to kya karen us bevafa ko bhuul na jaaen to kya karen

ishq paband-e-vafa hai na ki paband-e-rusum sar jhukane ko nahin kahte hain sajda karna

love is known by faithfulness and not by rituals bound just bowing of one's head is not

ye kya ki tum ne jafa se bhi haath khinch liya miri vafaon ka kuchh to sila diya hota

tiri vafa men mili arzu-e-maut mujhe jo maut mil gai hoti to koi baat bhi thi

ud gai yuun vafa zamane se kabhi goya kisi men thi hi nahin

the couplet laments a time when “wafa” (loyalty) seems to have disappeared entirely from society. the image of it “flying away” turns an abstract virtue into a fragile thing that cannot be held. the speaker’s grief hardens into disillusionment: not only is loyalty missing now, it seems like it was always an illusion. the emotional core is a bitter, resigned complaint about widespread unfaithfulness.

mujh se kya ho saka vafa ke siva mujh ko milta bhi kya saza ke siva

kaun uthaega tumhari ye jafa mere baad yaad aaegi bahut meri vafa mere baad

after i am gone, your torture who will bear you'll miss my devotion, when i am not there

ye vafa ki sakht rahen ye tumhare paanv nazuk na lo intiqam mujh se mire saath saath chal ke

your feet are tender, delicate, harsh are the paths of constancy on me your vengeance do not wreak, by thus giving me company

vo kahte hain har chot par muskurao vafa yaad rakkho sitam bhuul jaao

ham ne be-intiha vafa kar ke be-vafaon se intiqam liya

ye kya ki tum ne jafa se bhi haath khinch liya miri vafaon ka kuchh to sila diya hota

mujhe maalum hai ahl-e-vafa par kya guzarti hai samajh kar soch kar tujh se mohabbat kar raha huun main
