munawwar rana

maula ye tamanna hai ki jab jaan se jaaun,
jis shaan se aaya hu usee shaan se jaaun,

bachcho.n ki tarha ped ki shaakho,n se main kudoo,n
chiriyo,n ki tarha urke main khaliyaan se jaaun,

har lafz mehakne lage likkha huva mera,
main lipta huva yaado,n ke lobaan se jaaun,

kya sookhe huve phul ki qismat ka bharosa,
maloom nahi kab tere guldaan se jaaun,

darbaar me tere mujhe kya rokega koyi,
laanat hai agar pooch ke darbaan se jaaun,

mujh me koyi veeraana bhi aabaad hai shayed,
har saans ne poocha tha biyabaan se jaaun,

zinda mujhe dekhegi tou maa cheekh uthegi,
kya zakhm liye peeth pe maidaan se jaaun,

munawwar rana,
