Ab teri yad se wheshat nhi hoti mjko,

Zakham khulty hen aziyat nhi hoti mjko.

Ab koi aye ya chala jaye men khush rehta hon,

Ab kisi shakhs ki adat nhi hoti mjko.

Aesa badla hon teri wajah se,

Jhoot bolon to nidamat nhi hoti mjko.

Hy amanat men khyanat so kisi ki khatir,

Koi marta hy to herat nhi hoti mjko.

Itna masruf hon jeenay ki hawas men GHALIB,

Saans leny ki b fursat nhi hoti mjko.
