baith jata hai wo jab mahfil mein aa ke samne
main hi bas hota hun us ki is ada ke samne

tez thi itni ki sara shahr suna kar gai
der tak baitha raha main us hawa ke samne

raat ek ujde makan par ja ke jab aawaz di
gunj utthe baam-o-dar meri sada ke samne

wo rangila hath mere dil pe aur us ki mahak
sham-e-dil bujh si gai rang-e-hina ke samne

main to us ko dekhte hi jaise patthar ho gaya
baat tak munh se na nikli bewafa ke samne

yaad bhi hain ai 'munir' us sham ki tanhaiyan
ek maidan ek darakht aur tu khuda ke samne
