agar apni chashm-e-nam par mujhe iKHtiyar hota
agar apnī chashm-e-nam par mujhe iḳhtiyār hotā
to bhalā ye rāz-e-ulfat kabhī āshkār hotā
hai tunuk-mizāj sayyād kuchh apnā bas nahīñ hai
maiñ qafas ko le ke uḌtā agar iḳhtiyār hotā
ye zarā sī ik jhalak ne dil o jaañ ko yuuñ jalāyā
tirī barq-e-husn se phir koī kyā do-chār hotā
ajī tauba is garebāñ kī bhalā bisāt kyā thī
ye kaho ki haath uljhā nahīñ tār-tār hotā
vo na aate fātiha ko zarā muḌ ke dekh lete
to hujūm-e-'yās' itnā na sar-e-mazār hotā
agar apni chashm-e-nam par mujhe iKHtiyar hota
to bhala ye raaz-e-ulfat kabhi aashkar hota
hai tunuk-mizaj sayyaad kuchh apna bas nahin hai
main qafas ko le ke uDta agar iKHtiyar hota
ye zara si ek jhalak ne dil o jaan ko yun jalaya
teri barq-e-husn se phir koi kya do-chaar hota
aji tauba is gareban ki bhala bisat kya thi
ye kaho ki hath uljha nahin tar-tar hota
wo na aate fatiha ko zara muD ke dekh lete
to hujum-e-'yas' itna na sar-e-mazar hota
