Gam-o-ranj-o-alam Niko Yan Se — Mir Taqi Mir
ग़म-ओ-रंज-ओ-अलम निको याँ से
सब तुम्हारी ही मेहरबानी है
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
From sorrow, grief, and pain, do not depart from here; all is due to your grace.
Explanation
This poignant couplet is a perfect example of surrender to the beloved's will. The poet, Mir Taqi Mir, is essentially telling the beloved to stop inflicting pain, sorrow, and grief. But the ultimate surrender is the realization that even this unbearable pain is a gift, a favor, or a consequence of the beloved's grace. It captures the intense, paradoxical devotion of Urdu poetry.
