He was that Muhammad Hashim who was mentioned in connection with Bairam Khan, the Khankhanan. He was brother’s son to Maulana Shah Muhammad Unsi. He wrote Make not this inn with two doors a palace for thine abiding For strife makes rents in its walls and the wind of death is keen, Hasan Razu in beauty of verse and in the way of perfection Is the disciple of the wise man of Shiraz and of the saint of Tabriz."  
“Sweet is the season of winter, especially in the spring-time of youth If the rose of joy blossoms from the cup of wine.”  
“Happy was that night when the street of the tavern was our resting place. And the splendour of the cup-bearer’s form was the lamp of the assembly The breeze of re-union with the Beloved gave us fresh life, Or it would have been difficult to live under the hand of separation.”  
“In the morning, the time for the rose and the splendour of the tulip, The voice of the ringdove brought subtle hints to our ears.”  
“My lodging is in the street of disgrace, Its door is removed and its wall is ruined.”  
“Yesterday I had a desire for the holy temple and made my way to the rose garden, I went and walked around my loved one’s lodging.”  
“Thou didst say ‘Die then of the pain of love for me;’ it is an age since I have been dying of this love.”  
It has been said before that the Khānkhānān, Bairām Khān bought one of his ghazals for a lakh of tankas. The ode was that which began.  
“Who am I? one who has dropped from his hand the reins of his heart, And has fallen by the hands of his heart in the road of grief.”  
His death occurred in the city of Lāhor, in A.H. 972 (A.D. 1564-65).
