zamaane ab to Khush ho zahar ye bhii pii liyaa mai.n ne

[tark=renounce; garebaa.N=dress/clothing]

abhii zi.ndaa huu.N lekin sochataa rahataa huu.N Khalvat me.n
ki ab tak kis tamannaa ke sahaare jii liyaa mai.n ne

[Khalvat=solitude]

u.nhe.n apanaa nahii.n sakataa magar itanaa bhii kyaa kam hai

bahut dukh sah liye mai.n ne bahut din jii liyaa mai.n ne
