'ain-mumkin hai ye zahmat bhi uthani pad jae
baaton baaton mein koi baat chhupani pad jae

soch kar aur koi ‘uzr bhi rakkhen shayad
ru-baru us ke ye taujih purani pad jae

dar-ba-dar phirte hain is aas pe hum dil-zadagan
kisi raste mein koi sham suhani pad jae

maslahat odhne walon ko ye ma'lum nahin
apne raste ki ye diwar jo dhani pad jae

dekhte hain jise aaina-e-dil mein aksar
wahi taswir jo duniya ko dikhani pad jae

shahr ke tarz-e-taghaful se to behtar hai 'munir'
apne hisse mein koi naql-e-makani pad jae
