badan par is-qadar baarish mire hoti hai boson ki — Abdul Mannan Samadi

parinde sab nahin zindaan mein maare gae hain
qafas mein kuchh to kuchh naql-e-makaani mein mare hain

ulaT kar jab bhi dekhi hai kitaab-e-zindagi ham ne
to har ik lafz ke pichhe koi ik haadisa niklaa

vahi rusvaai kaa meri sabab aakhir bane maulaa
vahi jo log kal shaamein suhaani karne vaale the

vahi ik qissa ab tak dhyaan mein raushan nahin hotaa
tasalsul jis se vaabasta hai pichhli daastaanon kaa

tasavvur ki hadon se duur jaa kar kaise dekheinge
agar tum se ta'alluq ghaaebaana bhi nahin hogaa

kuchh badan ke the taqaaze kuchh sharaarat dil ki thi
aaj lekin ishq apnaa jaavedaan hone ko thaa

pyaaso raho na dasht mein baarish ke muntazir
maaro zamin pe paanv ki paani nikal paDe

'saabir' teraa kalaam sunein kyuun na ahl-e-fan
bandish ajab hai aur ajab bol chaal hai

sach ishq mein hain aashiq o maashuq baraabar
jo mushkil-e-majnun hai so hai mushkil-e-lailaa

kyaa isi ne ye kiyaa matla-e-abru mauzun
tum jo kahte ho sukhan-go hai baDi meri aankh

aur baazaar se kyaa le jaaun
pahli baarish kaa mazaa le jaaun

barsaat tham chuki hai magar har shajar ke paas
itnaa to hai ki aap kaa daaman bhigo sake
