Haathoan ki lakiron pe mat ja e Galib
Naseeb un k bhi hote hain jin k haath nahi hote......

udasiyan saath jo na latey to aur kya karte
na jashn-e-shola manaate to aur kya karte
andhera mangne aaya tha roshni ki bheek
hum apna ghar na jalaate tou aur kya karte..

Umar bhar Ghalib, yehi bhul karta raha,
Dhool Chehre pe thi, aur main aaina saaf karta raha.

Us lecture hall de last bench te mera naa khuneya,
Jithe baith kade si os kudi da ik supna buneya,
Na yaar rahe, na oh mili,
Jad sade saah nikle..
