हर शय को मेरी ख़ातिर-ए-नाशाद के लिए आईना-ए-जमाल बना कर चले गए
— Jigar Moradabadi
Meaning

They transformed every single thing into a mirror of beauty for the sake of my sorrowful heart, and then departed.

Explanation

Imagine someone walking out of your life, but leaving an indelible trace of their grace on everything around you. The poet laments that though the beloved has departed, they transformed the entire world into a mirror reflecting their own radiant beauty just to console his broken heart. It is a deeply bittersweet state—every object has become mesmerizing, yet every single sight serves as a tender, aching reminder of the one who is no longer there.
