ज़िंदगी अपनी जब इस शक्ल से गुज़री 'ग़ालिब'
हम भी क्या याद करेंगे कि ख़ुदा रखते थे

[Oh Ghalib, when our life passed in such bad circumstances, how will we say that we used to have a Lord?
That is, our situation is such that we can't even think that we are servants of the Lord. If He had created us, and were our Lord, then we wouldn't be ensnared in these difficulties.]

zindagi apni jab is shakl se guzri 'ghaalib'
hum bhi kya yaad karenge ki KHuda rakhte the
