Ghalib ne poochha -
Ghalib-e-khasta ke bagair, kaun se kaam band hain
Roi.ye zaar zaar kya, kijiye haai-haai kyu?
Unhone ye bhi farmaya -
Duboya mujhko hone ne
Na main hota, to kya hota?
Unke na hone se kya hota?
Rekhtey* ke tumhi ustaad nahi ho 'Ghalib'
Kehtey hain agle zamaaney me koi 'Meer' bhi tha!
Ab aap poochhoge -
Poochhtey hain woh ki 'Ghalib' kaun hai
Koi batlao ki hum batlayen kya?
To hum arz karenge -
Ye masaai.le-tasavvuff,** ye tera baya'Ghalib'
Tujhe hum wali*** samjhtey jo na baadahkhwaar**** hota!
