shajar pe baiThe parindon kaa shor kaaTtaa hai — Sharib Mauranwi

kisi ko maar ke khush ho rahe hain dahshat-gard
kahin pe shaam-e-gharibaan kahin divaali hai

peD ke niche zaraa si chhaanv jo us ko mili
so gayaa mazdur tan par boriyaa oDhe hue

saron pe oDh ke mazdur dhuup ki chaadar
khud apne sar pe use saaebaan samajhne lage

sab ek jaisi hain duniyaa ki ‘auratein lekin
tumhaare Dasne kaa andaaz mukhtalif Thahraa

qafas ke band parinde hain jin ki aankhon mein
asiri ghumti rahti hai qaid-khaanon ki

puuri duniyaa mujhe fankaar samajhti hai to kyaa
mere ghar vaale to naakaara samajhte hain mujhe
