Mirza Ghalib
Hazaar khwahishein aisi ke har khwahish pe dam nikle
Bahut nikle mere armaan lekin phir bhi kam nikle
Na main jaanaa jun-ko na woh jaane mast-e-daraa
Ke kis ka kaun hai tu tera kaun hai tera
Mohsin se dil ne waista kiya hai jo har roz
Bakhshish ke badle dard-e-dil ka sauda karte hain
Meaning
A thousand desires each worth dying for. Many wishes were fulfilled yet still too few.
