हमेशा चाहता है दिल कि मिल कर कीजे मय-नोशी मयस्सर जाम-ए-मय-ए-जम-जम हमें भी हो तुम्हें भी हो
— Bahadur Shah Zafar
Meaning

The heart always desires that we drink wine together, and that the cup of wine be continuously and abundantly available to both you and me.

Explanation

The poet expresses a tender wish for shared companionship, believing that life's sweetest joys lose their charm when tasted alone. The metaphor of sharing a cup of wine reflects a yearning for equal intimacy, where neither lover is left thirsty or secluded. By wishing that this cup be granted 'jam jam'—freely, endlessly, and in abundance—the verse turns into a warm, heartfelt toast to eternal togetherness.
