सोज़िश दिल से मुफ़्त गलते हैं

Like stains, the lamps of light shine bright today.

इस तरह दिल गया कि अब तक हम
बैठे रोते हैं हाथ मिलते हैं
My heart broke in such a way that even now,
We sit weeping, holding hands.

भरी आती हैं आज यूँ आँखें
जैसे दरिया कहीं उबलते हैं
My eyes fill up today,

Be patient, wait, for we too shall depart.

तेरे बे-ख़ुद जो हैं सो क्या चेतें
ऐसे डूबे कहीं उछलते हैं
What good are your uncontrolled emotions to soothe,
Like those who plunge deep and then leap high anew.

फ़ित्ना दर-सर बुतान-ए-हश्र-ए-ख़िराम
हाए रे किस ठसक से चलते हैं
At the gate of the turmoil, the garden of the Great Gathering,
Oh, how gracefully they walk.

सोते से उठ के आँख मलते हैं

इस सर-ए-ज़ुल्फ़ का ख़याल न छोड़
साँप के सर ही याँ कुचलते हैं

For the serpent crushes only the heads.

थे जो अग़्यार संग सीने के
अब तो कुछ हम को देख टलते हैं
The one who was with the eleven, whose chest was so full,
Now sees us and turns away, leaving us null.

शम'-रू मोम के बने हैं मगर
गर्म टक मलिए तो पिघलते हैं
They are made of cool, soft wax, but
When placed in hot hands, they melt away.

'मीर'-साहिब को देखिए जो बने
अब बहुत घर से कम निकलते हैं
Look at Mir Sahib, who has become / Now leaves the house much less
