Main dhoop dhoop musafat main jis ke saath raha
Zara si chaaon main iss ne bhula diya mujh ko


Mohsin Naqvi

It means that though friends use you in times of need, they will qickly let go of you the minute they are stable on their own feet - they dont mind being your extra baggage, but they will not for a second pick up your weight if they have a choice!

Why I'm not dying!
Of the unfaithful drops of dew,
Which depart the flower,
Upon seeing a slight warmth


Thats what I wrote in one of Rehman Baba's translations where the metaphors are in contrast with Mohsin Naqvi's but thought is the same. Waisay I like this one from Mohsin Naqvi the most,
Mohsin taloo-e-ashk daleel-e-sahar tau hay
shab kat gayee charagh bujha dena chahiye
