Afsos ke dandaan ka kiya rizq falak ne
19th Century Mirza Ghalib UrduAlas, that Fate has made the teeth their prize, For those who once strung pearls with skillful finger.
That you withheld the ring was sign enough, To show me, as you left, your empty finger.
Asad, I write with my heart's burning fire, So none can lay upon my words a finger.
