agar itna na tu ayyar hota
to dushman ka na hargiz yar hota

dui ka naqsh mitta dil se ai kash
mai-e-wahdat se main sarshaar hota

jo hote aaj-kal qais aur farhad
main un ka qafila-salar hota

na hota gar tera talib jahan mein
to main paband-e-nang-o-ar hota

lagae chat par hain us ko dushman
ilahi main bhi kuchh zardar hota

agar hota mujhe pas aabru ka
na tera aashiq-e-didar hota

tadapta hai qafas mein tair-e-dil
nikal jata agar par-dar hota

tamanna dil ki 'saqi' jab nikalti
agar munh se na kuchh izhaar hota
