aangan hai jal-thal bahut diwaron par ghas
ghar ke andar bhi mila 'shahid' ko banwas

aur kuchh bhi mujhe darkar nahin hai lekin
meri chadar mere pairon ke barabar kar de

Shahid Meer

ujhti hui si ek shabih zehn mein liye
miTti hui sitaron ki saf dekhte rahe

Shahid Meer

dard hai daulat ki tarah gham Thahra jagir
apni is jagir mein KHush hain 'shahid-mir'

Shahid Meer

ganwae baiThe hain aankhon ki raushni 'shahid'
jahan-panah ka insaf dekhne wale

Shahid Meer

---

har ek shai be-mel thi kaise banti baat
aankhon se sapne baDe nind se lambi raat

Shahid Meer

---

jiwan jina kaThin hai wish pina aasan
insan ban kar dekh lo o 'shankar' bhagwan

Shahid Meer

---

kaghaz par likh dijiye apne sare bhed
dil mein rahe to aanch se ho jaenge chhed

Shahid Meer

pahle to chhin li meri aankhon ki raushni
phir aaine ke samne laya gaya mujhe
