dil ki ho dil se mulaqat bahut mushkil hai
aur sab sahl hai ye baat bahut mushkil hai

ishq walon ki to dawat hai junun se mumkin
husn walon ki mudaraat bahut mushkil hai

bazm-e-fitrat ke bhi aain kahin badle hain
sab ke mabain musawat bahut mushkil hai

jeb khali ho to ek lamha bhi hota hai pahad
muflisi mein basar-auqat bahut mushkil hai

hadiya-e-gham hain 'munawar' mere dil ke tukde
koi thukrae ye saughat bahut mushkil hai
