Kahe deta hun, go hai to nahin ye baat kahne ki

kahe deta hun, go hai to nahin ye baat kahne ki
teri KHwahish nahin dil mein ziyaada der rahne ki

bacha kar dil guzarta ja raha hun har talluq se
kahan is aable ko tab hai ab choT sahne ki

rag-o-pai mein na hangama kare to kya kare aaKHir
ijazat jab nahin is ranj ko aankhon se bahne ki

bas apni apni tarjihat, apni apni KHwahish hai
tujhe shohrat kamane ki, mujhe ek sher kahne ki

jahan ka hun, wahin ki ras aaegi faza mujh ko
ye duniya bhi bhala koi jagah hai mere rahne ki?

jo kal 'irfan' par guzri suna kuchh us ke bare mein?
KHabar tum ne suni tufan mein dariya ke bahne ki
