Ghalib 13.1

Neath thy eyebrow's Islamic arch, for wine's fountain we prayed

& brothels yet nestle in the Mosque's hoary shade

Proving that, in no wise prodigal, Abounding Grace

So all things perish, saves a single face.

Notes-

{131,1}

مسجد کے زیرِ سایہ خرابات چاہیے
بھوں پاس آنکھ قبلۂ حاجات چاہیے
