aisī huī sarsabz-shikāyat kī kaḌī baat

sabze kī tarah kaan meñ us gul kī paḌī baat

kyūñkar dahan-e-tañg se zāhir ho kaḌī baat

muñh aap kā chhoTā hai na niklegī baḌī baat

gul-rañg tire hoñTh hue bār-e-suḳhan se

ai jaan uḌā le ga.ī missī kī dhaḌī baat

tere suḳhan-e-saḳht meñ hai husn-e-nazākat

kānoñ ko huī pamba-e-mahtāb kaḌī baat

is pech se tum mujh ko uḌāte ho dam-e-nutq

zanjīr-e-ram-e-hosh kī bantī hai kaḌī baat

taqrīr tirī shāḳh-e-gul-e-tāza hai ai mast

detī hai kaf-e-bāda meñ phūloñ kī chhaḌī baat

vasf-e-dur-e-dandāñ se ye baḌh jaate haiñ rutbe

rag rag ko banā detī hai motī kī laḌī baat

har kaan huā hai sabad-e-gul se ziyāda

kyā phuul ke mānind tire muñh se jhaḌī baat

dhotā hai suḳhan dil se ġhubār-e-ġham-e-duniyā

hai gard-e-alam ke liye sāvan kī jhaḌī baat

kyā mohr banā.ī tire yāqūt-e-suḳhan kī

mānind-e-nagīñ ham ne añgūThī meñ jaḌī baat

naqd-e-suḳhan-e-pāk diyā gard-e-qalaq meñ

ganjīne ke mānind tah-e-ḳhāk gaḌī baat

jis roz maiñ gintā huuñ tire aane kī ghaḌiyāñ

sūraj ko banā detī hai sone kī ghaḌī baat

ustād ke ehsān kā kar shukr 'munīr' aaj

kī ahl-e-suḳhan ne tirī tārīf baḌī baat
