जहाँ से उठ गए जो लोग फिर नहीं मिलते कहाँ से ढूँड के अब लाएँ हम-नशीनों को
— Mir Anees
Meaning

The people who depart from this world are never found again; from where can we now search and bring back our companions?

Explanation

This sher captures the heart-wrenching finality of loss and the quiet, permanent ache of nostalgia. The poet laments that once cherished companions depart from this world, no amount of searching or longing can ever summon them back to life's gathering. Beyond physical death, it touches on the profound loneliness of an empty room where laughter once echoed, leaving the survivor stranded among mere memories.
