He was a servant of Bairam Khān.* and the Khān sent by his hand a sum of seven thousand rupees as an offering to the shrine of his holiness the Imām Riẓā* (on whom be blessings and praise! Having spent all this money he was there called to account by Shāh ahmāsp and in the year H. 974 (A.D. 1566-67) was released from torture by death). These couplets are by him:—

“When my sallow countenance appeared in the mirror,
The mirror, from the reflection of my face, became an
autumn leaf.”

“My narrow breast, in which lodges grief for the absence of
my love,
May yet be so situated that joy will leave in it no room for
my soul.”
