Tere vaade par jiye hum
Toh yeh jaan jhoot jaana
Ki khushi se mar na jaate,
Agar aitbaar hota?

(To say that I live because of your promise to me,
Would make this life of mine a lie.
For would I not have died of sheer joy,
Had I trusted it to be sincere?)


Aye Mirza Ghalib,
Tujhpe koi apni jaan chhidke... to bhi kam hai.
