ye na thii hamaarii qismat ke visaal-e-yaar hotaa, Mirza ghalib

ye na thii hamaarii qismat ke visaal-e-yaar hotaa
agar aur jiite rahate yahii intazaar hotaa

kahuu.N kis se mai.n ke kyaa hai, shab-e-Gam burii balaa hai
mujhe kyaa buraa thaa maranaa agar ek baar hotaa

koii mere dil se puuchhe tere tiir-e-niimakash ko
ye Khalish kahaa.N se hotii jo jigar ke paar hotaa
[tiir-e-niimkash=half drawn arrow, Khalish=pain ]

ye kahaa.N kii dostii hai ke bane hai.n dost naaseh
koii chaaraasaaz hotaa, koii Gam_gusaar hotaa
[naaseh=councellor, chaarasaaz=healer, Gamgusaar=sympathizer]


rag-e-sang se Tapakataa wo lahuu ki phir na thamataa
jise Gam samajh rahe ho ye agar sharaar hotaa
[rag=nerve, sang=stone, sharaar=flash]
