agarche ishq mein aafat hai aur bala bhi hai
nira bura nahin ye shaghl kuchh bhala bhi hai

is ashk o aah mein sauda bigad na jae kahin
ye dil kuchh aab-rasida hai kuchh jala bhi hai

ye aarzu hai ki us bewafa se ye puchhun
ki mere be-maza rakhne mein kuchh maza bhi hai

ye kaun dhab hai sajan khak mein milane ka
kasu ka dil kabhu panw tale mila bhi hai

'yaqin' ka shor-e-junun sun ke yar ne puchha
koi qabila-e-majnun mein kya raha bhi hai
