ek masafat panw shal karti hui si khwab mein
ek safar gahra musalsal zardi-e-mahtab mein

tez hai bu-e-shagufa hae marg-e-na-gahan
ghir gai khak-e-zamin jaise hisar-e-ab mein

hasil-e-johd-e-musalsal mustaqil aazurdagi
kaam karta hun hawa mein justuju nayab mein

tang karti hai makan mein khwahish-e-sair-e-basit
hai asar daim falak ka sahn ki mehrab mein

ai 'munir' ab is qadar khamoshiyan ye kya hua
ye sifat aai kahan se para-e-simab mein
