Hai Tiri Tasvir Kitni Be-hijab — Dagh Dehlvi
है तिरी तस्वीर कितनी बे-हिजाब
हर किसी के रू-ब-रू होने लगी
— Dagh Dehlvi
Meaning
Your portrait has become so unveiled that it has now begun to come face-to-face with everyone.
Explanation
This couplet captures the tender jealousy and quiet ache of watching something once sacred become common. The beloved's image, which was once an intensely private treasure kept veiled from the world, is now exposed for everyone to gaze upon. Beneath the mild reproach lies a profound sense of loss, mourning how rare intimacy has been turned into a public spectacle.
