साक़ी की चश्म-ए-मस्त का क्या कीजिए बयान इतना सुरूर था कि मुझे भी सुरूर था
— Jigar Moradabadi
Meaning

How can the intoxicating eyes of the cupbearer be described? There was so much intoxication in them that I, too, became intoxicated.

Explanation

In this delightful verse, the poet captures the contagious magic of an intoxicating gaze. The cupbearer usually pours wine, but here, no cup is needed—the beloved's eyes are already so brimming with pure joy and ecstasy that a mere glance passes that divine intoxication directly to the poet. It beautifully shows how real bliss is not something consumed, but a shared spark between two souls.
