Ku-e-jaanan mujhse hargiz itni begana na ho

ku-e-jaanan mujh se hargiz itni begana na ho
ain mumkin hai ki phir teri taraf aana na ho

ain mumkin hai ki dohraun hadis-e-digaran
aaj jo meri zaban par hai wo afsana na ho

ain mumkin hai ki ja pahunchun kisi mirriKH par
is zamin se koi rishta koi yarana na ho

pir-e-mai-KHana ye mumkin hai ki mera ja-nashin
rind ho par waqif-e-adab-e-mai-KHana na ho

tu mujhe farzangi ka fan na sikhla ai KHirad
ain mumkin hai ki mujh sa koi diwana na ho

ain mumkin hai ki main tujh se bichhaD jaane ke baad
aisa ban jaun ki KHud teri jise parwa na ho

ain mumkin hai ki teri be-ruKHi ko dekh kar
main wo kafir hun jo mashur-e-ruKH-e-zeba na ho

soch mat ai dost tere baad kya hoga ye soch
yani mere baad phir mujh sa koi paida na ho

phir na uTThe koi aarif meri waza-e-KHas ka
aur mujh sa shair-e-sarshaar-o-hosh-afza na ho

yani mere baad koi mard-e-hikmat-afrin
manzar-e-hikmat pe aae aur farzana na ho

mujh ko tark-e-dosti ke is qadar tane na de
main tera dushman nazar aane lagun aisa na ho

phir kahe deta kahe deta kahe deta hun main
ku-e-jaanan mujh se hargiz itni begana na ho
