Be-talab Jo Mila Mila Mujh Ko — Dagh Dehlvi
Meaning
Whatever I received, I received without asking, and whatever You gave, You gave selflessly without any selfish motive.
Explanation
This couplet beautifully captures the essence of pure, unconditional grace. The poet reflects with deep humility that life’s greatest blessings were never begged for or earned, but arrived unbidden. In contrast, the Giver—whether the Divine or a truly selfless beloved—bestows everything without any hidden motive or expectation of return. It is a quiet, moving acknowledgment of a generosity that exists entirely outside the realm of worldly transactions.
