thaa musteaar husn se usake jo nuur thaa
Kurshiid me.n bhii us hii kaa zarraa-e-zahuur thaa

pahu.Nchaa jo aap ko to mai.n pahu.Nchaa Kudaa ke taaiin
maaluum ab huaa ki bahot mai.n bhii duur thaa

%[taaiin = near]

kal paa.Nv ek kaasaa-e-sar par jo aa gayaa
yak-sar wo istaKvaan shikasto.n me.n chuur thaa

%[kaasaa-e-sar = head; istaKvaan = head]

kahane lagaa ke dekh ke chal raah be-Kabar
mai.n bhii kabhuu kisuu kaa sar-e-pur-Guruur thaa

%[sar-e-pur-Guruur = proud head]

thaa vo to rashk-e-huur-e-bahishtii hamii.n me.n 'Meer'
samajhe na ham to feham kaa apane qasuur thaa
