| Why shouldn't it feel the pain | B |
| Let none tyrannize this heart | C |
| Or I shall cry again and again | D |
| Neither the temple nor the mosque | E |
| Nor on someone's door or porch | F |
| I await on the path where He will tread | G |
| Why others should compel me to go | H |
| The illumined grace that lights up the heart | C |
| And glows like the midday sun | I |
| That Self that annihilates all sights | J |
| When then it hides in the mysterious net | K |
| The amorous glance is the deadly dagger | L |
| And the arrows of emotions are fatal | M |
| Your image may be equally powerful | M |
| Why should it appear before you | N |
| The rules of life and bonds of sorrow | H |
| In reality are the one manifestation | I |
| Before realizing the ultimate truth | O |
| How can then one attain liberation | I |
| Love is laden with noble thoughts | P |
| Yet what remains is the carnal shame | Q |

| Why do you want test the rival | M |
| There the pride of modesty resides | S |
| Here dwells the social morality | T |
| How shall we meet on which road | U |
| Why should he invite me to the abode | U |
| True he is an atheist | V |
| Unfaithful and unchaste | V |
| Dear to who is faith and heart | V |
| Why should he then venture there | W |
| Without the wretched 'Ghalib' | X |
| Has any activity come to a halt | V |
| What then is the need to cry | Y |
| What then is the need to brood | V |
