das biis har mahine mein abru nazar paDe — Muneer Shikohabadi

be-ilm shaairon kaa gila kyaa hai ai 'munir'
hai ahl-e-ilm ko tiraa tarz-e-bayaan pasand

sunti hai roz naghma-e-zanjir-e-aashiqaan
vo zulf bhi hai silsila-e-ahl-e-chisht mein

jis roz main gintaa huun tire aane ki ghaDiyaan
suraj ko banaa deti hai sone ki ghaDi baat

haath milvaate ho tarsaae gilauri ke liye
kaf-e-afsos na mal jaae kahin paanv mein

jab kabhi maski kaTori kyaa sadaa paidaa hui
karti hai angiyaa ki chiDiyaa chahchahaane ki havas

khuub taazir-e-gunaah-e-ishq hai
naqd-e-jaan lenaa yahaan jurmaana hai

barsaat kaa baadal to divaana hai kyaa jaane
kis raah se bachnaa hai kis chhat ko bhigonaa hai

ab bhi barsaat ki raaton mein badan TuTtaa hai
jaag uThti hain ajab khvaahishein angDaai ki

aae kuchh abr kuchh sharaab aae
is ke baa'd aae jo azaab aae

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

jab jab tum ko yaad karein ham
tab tab baarish ho jaati hai

jo meri chashm ke parde sharik ho jaate
kamaal-e-daaman-e-abr-e-bahaar baDh jaataa
