lab pe harf-e-motabar rakhta hai wo
lab pe harf-e-mo'tabar rakhtā hai vo
baat karne kā hunar rakhtā hai vo
ek ālī-shān ghar rakhtā hai vo
phir bhī ḳhud ko dar-ba-dar rakhtā hai vo
ek apnī hī nahīñ haiñ uljhaneñ
kitne ġham-hā-e-digar rakhtā hai vo
uḌ rahā hai jo khule ākāsh meñ
aane vaale kal kā Dar rakhtā hai vo
sar se pā tak chīḳhtī sannāTagī
apne andar ik khañDar rakhtā hai vo
Thokaroñ meñ us kī hai sultāniyat
peT par patthar magar rakhtā hai vo
dil jalā ke jaane kī kī yaad meñ
shaam kī dahlīz par rakhtā hai vo
dil ke paañv Daal dī zanjīr-e-aql
nafs ko yuuñ maar kar rakhtā hai vo
rāt-bhar chehra ḳhudā kī yaad meñ
āñsuoñ se tar-ba-tar rakhtā hai vo
khoyā rahtā hai kitāboñ meñ magar
shahr-o-sahrā kī ḳhabar rakhtā hai vo
aadmī se ho ga.ī haiñ nafrateñ
ghar meñ jañglī jānvar rakhtā hai vo
jhiil laḌkī mor titlī gul havā
ḳhvāb kī dīvār par rakhtā hai vo
ek naqsh-e-pā zamīñ par hai 'munīr'
dūsrā aflāk par rakhtā hai vo
lab pe harf-e-mo'tabar rakhta hai wo
baat karne ka hunar rakhta hai wo
ek aali-shan ghar rakhta hai wo
phir bhi KHud ko dar-ba-dar rakhta hai wo
ek apni hi nahin hain uljhanen
kitne gham-ha-e-digar rakhta hai wo
uD raha hai jo khule aakash mein
aane wale kal ka Dar rakhta hai wo
sar se pa tak chiKHti sannaTagi
apne andar ek khanDar rakhta hai wo
Thokaron mein us ki hai sultaniyat
peT par patthar magar rakhta hai wo
dil jala ke jaane ki ki yaad mein
sham ki dahliz par rakhta hai wo
dil ke panw Dal di zanjir-e-aql
nafs ko yun mar kar rakhta hai wo
raat-bhar chehra KHuda ki yaad mein
aansuon se tar-ba-tar rakhta hai wo
khoya rahta hai kitabon mein magar
shahr-o-sahra ki KHabar rakhta hai wo
aadmi se ho gai hain nafraten
ghar mein jangli jaanwar rakhta hai wo
jhil laDki mor titli gul hawa
KHwab ki diwar par rakhta hai wo
ek naqsh-e-pa zamin par hai 'munir'
dusra aflak par rakhta hai wo
