Ghazal
याँ सरकशाँ जो साहब-ए-ताज ओ लवा हुए
This ghazal describes the irony of a person who, despite being the center of attention or royalty, fails to recognize their true worth. The poet suggests that those who leave the gathering or the person's company will deeply regret it, just as a garden loses its vibrancy without its bloom.

याँ सरकशाँ जो साहब-ए-ताज ओ लवा हुए
पामाल हो गए तो न जाना कि क्या हुए
If the master of the crown, the great lord, should wander and stray,
Do not know what has happened when he has become desolate.
If the master of the crown, the great lord, should wander and stray, do not know what has happened when he has become desolate.

देखी न एक चश्मक-ए-गुल भी चमन में आह
हम आख़िर बहार-ए-क़फ़स से रहा हुए
Not even a single spectacle of a flower was seen in the garden,
Yet we are departing from the spring of the cage.
Not even a single spectacle of a flower was seen in the garden, yet we are departing from the spring of the cage.

पछताओगे बहुत जो गए हम जहाँ से
आदम की क़द्र होती है ज़ाहिर जुदा हुए
You will regret the place from which we have left,
Man's worth is revealed when we are separated.
You will greatly regret the place from which we departed; man's worth is evident when separated.

तुझ बिन दिमाग़ सोहबत-ए-अहल-ए-चमन न था
गुल वा हुए हज़ार वले हम न वा हुए
Without you, the company of the garden's people was empty,
Though a thousand roses bloomed, I did not bloom.
Without you, the company of the garden's people was empty; though a thousand roses bloomed, I did not bloom.

सर दे के 'मीर' हम ने फ़राग़त की 'इश्क़ में
ज़िम्मे हमारे बोझ था बारे अदा हुए
By giving my hair, Mir, we achieved leisure in love; / Our burden of responsibility was paid off.
By giving my hair, Mir, we achieved leisure in love; our burden of responsibility was paid off.
