ek main aur itne lakhon silsilon ke samne
ek saut-e-gung jaise gumbadon ke samne

mitte jate naqsh dud-e-dam ki aamad raft se
khulte jate be-sada lab aainon ke samne

hai hawa-e-sair-e-ab aur ajnabi si sar-zamin
ud rahi hai khak-e-kohna sahilon ke samne

aag jalti hai gharon mein ya koi taswir hai
yaadgar-e-jurm-e-adam khakiyon ke samne

dushmani rasm-e-jahan hai dosti harf-e-ghalat
aadmi tanha khada hai zalimon ke samne

chaar chup chizen hain bahr-o-bar falak aur kohsar
dil dahal jata hai in khali jaghon ke samne

baatin-e-zardar pur-asrar hai jaise 'munir'
kan-e-zar ki band haibat mashalon ke samne
