lahu ka zaiqa hi jab zaban tak na gaya
to kya ajab hai jo zakhmon pe dhyan tak na gaya

wo ek wahm jo sarmaya-e-faqiri tha
yaqin mein is tarah badla guman tak na gaya

badal gai kahin raste mein kimiya us ki
utha ghubar magar aasman tak na gaya

ana-parast the aise badan to phir hai badan
hamara saya kabhi saeban tak na gaya

bata ke rah gae sab daw-pech sahil se
hawa ke sath koi baadban tak na gaya

khuda ka shukr ki mere hi jurm kafi the
faqih-e-shahr mere khandan tak na gaya

hamare tir chhupae nahin gae the 'munir'
hamara hat hi apni kaman tak na gaya
