Karta Hai Chhed Chhed Hamara Jigar Tamaam — Mir Taqi Mir

करता है छेद छेद हमारा जिगर तमाम वो देखना तिरा मिज़ा-ए-नीम-बाज़ से
— Mir Taqi Mir

Meaning

Seeing your half-tempting demeanor makes holes in our entire heart.

Explanation

This powerful couplet captures the agony of being emotionally tormented by a beloved whose affection is inconsistent. The poet says that the beloved keeps making holes in his heart entirely, and all he wants is to witness that fickle, half-hearted temperament. It is a profound complaint, not about the pain itself, but about the unpredictable nature of the love that causes it.
