वो कौन है कि जाते नहीं आप जिस के पास
लेकिन हमेशा भागते हो तुम हमीं से दूर
— Bahadur Shah Zafar
Meaning
Who is there in the world to whom you do not go, yet it is always only from me that you run away?
Explanation
This couplet captures the tender grievance of a wounded lover who watches their beloved effortlessly grace everyone else's company. The heartbreak lies in this sharp contrast: while the rest of the world enjoys the beloved's presence, the speaker is the only one singled out for deliberate distance. It is a soft, aching complaint that mingles quiet jealousy with pure longing.
