Mastiyan Har Taraf Hain Avara — Jigar Moradabadi
Meaning
Intoxication is wandering aimlessly in all directions; who is it that has plundered or ruined the wine?
Explanation
The poet paints a vivid picture as if a tavern has been raided or a great vat of wine shattered, letting ecstasy spill freely into the open air for everyone to breathe in. He wonders in sweet bewilderment who this plunderer could be that has unleashed intoxication so unbound across the world. At its heart, it captures the overwhelming arrival of the beloved or love itself, whose sheer radiance breaks all boundaries and leaves the entire atmosphere delightfully adrift.
