kitni hi barishen hon shikayat zara nahin
sailaniyon ko khatra-e-sail-e-bala nahin

main ne bhi ek harf bahut zor se kaha
wo shor tha magar ki kisi ne suna nahin

lakhon hi bar bujh ke jala dard ka diya
so ek bar aur bujha phir jala nahin

waise to yar main bhi taghayyur-pasand hun
chhota sa ek khwab mujhe bhulta nahin

us din hawa-e-subh ye kahti hui gai
'yusuf'-miyan ke sanwle bete mein kya nahin
