aisi hui sarsabz-shikayat ki kadi baat
sabze ki tarah kaan men us gul ki padi baat
kyunkar dahan-e-tang se zahir ho kadi baat
munh aap ka chhota hai na niklegi badi baat
gul-rang tire honth hue bar-e-sukhan se
ai jaan uda le gai missi ki dhadi baat
tere sukhan-e-sakht men hai husn-e-nazakat
kanon ko hui pamba-e-mahtab kadi baat
is pech se tum mujh ko udate ho dam-e-nutq
zanjir-e-ram-e-hosh ki banti hai kadi baat
taqrir tiri shakh-e-gul-e-taza hai ai mast
deti hai kaf-e-bada men phulon ki chhadi baat
vasf-e-dur-e-dandan se ye badh jaate hain rutbe
rag rag ko bana deti hai moti ki ladi baat
har kaan hua hai sabad-e-gul se ziyada
kya phuul ke manind tire munh se jhadi baat
dhota hai sukhan dil se ghubar-e-gham-e-duniya
hai gard-e-alam ke liye savan ki jhadi baat
kya mohr banai tire yaqut-e-sukhan ki
manind-e-nagin ham ne anguthi men jadi baat
naqd-e-sukhan-e-pak diya gard-e-qalaq men
ganjine ke manind tah-e-khak gadi baat
jis roz main ginta huun tire aane ki ghadiyan
suraj ko bana deti hai sone ki ghadi baat
ustad ke ehsan ka kar shukr ‘munir’ aaj
ki ahl-e-sukhan ne tiri tarif badi baat
