vo jo ham men tum men qarar tha tumhen yaad ho ki na yaad ho 

vahi ya.ani va.ada nibah ka tumhen yaad ho ki na yaad ho 

vo jo lutf mujh pe the beshtar vo Karam ki thA mire haal par 

mujhe sab hai yaad zara zara tumhen yaad ho ki na yaad ho 

vo na.e gile vo shikayaten vo maze maze ki hikayaten

vo har ek baat pe ruThna tumhen yaad ho ki na yaad ho 

Kabhi baiThe sab men jo Ru-ba-Ru to isharaton hi se guftugu

vo bayan shauq ka barmala tumhen yaad ho ki na yaad ho 

hue ittifaq se gar baham to vafa jatane ko dam-ba-dam 

gila-e-malamat-e-aqriba tumhen yaad ho ki na yaad ho 

koi baat aisi agar hui ki tumhare ji ko buri lagi

to bayan se pahle hi bhulna tumhen yaad ho ki na yaad ho 

kabhi ham men tum men bhi chaah thi kabhi ham se tum se bhi raah thi 

kabhi ham bhi tum bhi the ashna tumhen yaad ho ki na yaad ho 

suno zikr hai ka.i saal ka ki kiya ik aap ne va.ada thā 

so nibahane ka to zikr kya tumhen yaad ho ki na yaad ho 

kaha main ne baat vo koThe ki mire dil se saaf utar ga.i

to kaha ki jaane miri bala tumhen yaad ho ki na yaad ho 

vo bigaḌna vasl ki raat ka vo na mana kisi baat ka

vo nahin nahin ki har aan ada tumhen yaad ho ki na yaad ho 

jise aap ginte the ashna jise aap kahte the ba-vafa

main vahi huun 'momin'-e-mubtala tumhen yaad ho ki na yaad ho

Momin has used poetry since childhood. Initially, Shah Naseer used to show his word, then he refused to reform and began to rely on his intelligence. In his youth, he was one of the handsome, cheerful men of the city. The youth passed away in love and affection.

 The word of the period is immersed in a very lovable color. But later he had pledged allegiance to Syed Shaheed Ahmad Barelvi and after all these occupations, he took the path of piety and did not speak against Sunnah after that.

Being the head of the family, the Momin did not have to do any other business. He also adopted medicine only for the benefit of the people. He did not face the economic and social fluctuations that preceded the other ideologies of the period. He had lived all his life with a degree of dignity, dignity, and satisfaction. He did not work in any court, nor did he write in praise of a king or nawab. The Nawab of Tonk wanted to call them a gift, but they refused. Similarly, a Maharaja Kapoor Thala called him to the Mulk-ul-shaura in his court for a very reasonable salary, but when the Momin learned that the singers of this court had a salary, they rejected it with contempt. ۔ Delhi College professor also refused because he had to move away from homeland which he did not approve of.

Most critics of the poetical position of the Momin agree that he had the same power over poetry and lyrics. He does not reach the point of bargaining and tasting, but there is no doubt that he is one of the few good Urdu poets. He is a partner of Diya Shankar Naseem and Mirza Shauk, but the poetical greatness of the Momin depends on his lyrics. As a lyricist, the Momin has made Urdu lyrics unique in the lyrics and other essays. Distinguish. Momin's lyrics can be said to be better spokespersons of arrogance, euphemism, sarcasm, and humor.

Momin is known for his Persianized style and the beautiful use of his 'takhallus'. According to legend, Mirza Ghalib (his contemporary and a rival) offered Momin his entire diwan (collection of poetry) in exchange for a particular verse of Momin.

 tm mery pass hoty ho goyaa

jb koi dosra nahin hota........

However, most modern poets believe this claim as an ‘exaggeration’ which the poet commonly indulged in at that time. This exaggeration was usually done to emphasize something.

asar us ko Zara nahin hota

ranj rahat-faza nahinn hota 

bevafa kahne k shikayat hai 

to bhi vada-vafa nahi hotā 

zikr-e-aghyar se hua ma.alum 

harf-e-naseh bura nahin hota 

kis ko hai zauq-e-talḳh-kami lek 

jang bin kuchh maza nahin hota 

tum hamare kisi tarah na hue 

varna duniya men kya nahin hota 

us ne kya jaane kya kiya le kar 

dil kisi kaam ka nahin hota

imtihan kijiye mira jab tak 

shauq zor-azma nahin hota

ek dushman ki charḳh hai na rahe 

tujh se ye ai dua nahin hota

aah tul-e-amal hai roz-fuzun

garche ik mudda.a nahin hota

tum mire paas hote ho goya

jab koi dusra nahin hota 

hal-e-dil yaar ko likhun kyunkar 

haath dil se juda nahin hota

rahm bar-ḳhasm-e-jan-e-ghair na ho 

sab ka dil ek sa nahin hota

daman us ka jo hai daraz to ho 

dast-e-ashiq rasa nahin hota

chara-e-dil siva e sabr nahin

so tumhare siva nahin hota

kyuun sune arz-e-muztar ai 'momin' 

sanam aḳhir ḳhuda nahin hota

roya karenge aap bhi pahron isi tarah 

atka kahin jo aap ka dil bhi miri tarah 

aata nahin hai vo to kisi Dhab se daav men

banti nahin hai milne ki us ke koi tarah 

tashbih kis se duun ki tarah-dar ki mire 

sab se nirali vaz.a hai sab se na.i tarah 

mar chuk kahin  ki tu gham-e-hijran se chhuT jaa.e 

kahte to hain bhale ki va-lekin buri tarah 

ne taab hijr men hai na aram vasl men

kam-baḳht dil ko chain nahin hai kisii tarah 

lagti hain galiyan bhi tire munh se kya bhali

qurban tere phir mujhe kah le usii tarah 

pamal ham na hote faqat jaur-e-charḳh se 

aa.i hamari jaan pe aafat ka.ī tarah 

ne jaa.e vaan bane hai ne bin jaa.e chain hai 

kya kījiye hamen to hai mushkil sabhi tarah 

ma.ashuq aur bhi hain bata de jahan men

karta hai kaun zulm kisi par tirii tarah 

huun jan-ba-lab butan-e-sitamgar ke haath se 

kya sab jahan me jiite hain 'momin' isi tarah
