O Jigar, let my friends break off all ties with me now, for the sun of my life has reached the edge of the roof (death is near).

Here, Jigar paints a poignant picture of his twilight years using the metaphor of a setting sun lingering on the roof's edge ('lab-e-baam'), ready to sink below the horizon at any moment. Rather than clinging to company, he tenderly asks his dearest friends to break their ties with him now. There is no bitterness in this request, only a profound, selfless love—he wishes to spare those close to him the sudden, sharp heartbreak of his impending demise.
