Kabhi Husn Ki Tabi.at Na Badal Saka Zamana — Jigar Moradabadi
Meaning
The world could never change the nature of beauty; it still possesses the same indifferent pride and regal majesty.
Explanation
Time has the power to change everything in the universe, yet the poet marvels that beauty remains completely untouched by its flow. The beloved still holds the same enchanting indifference and sovereign, regal grace—ruling over hearts without needing their validation. It is a lover's fond and tender confession that while empires and eras crumble, the sweet arrogance of the beloved will forever remain supreme.
