आलम मिरे है तुझ पर आई अगर क़यामत तेरी गली के हर-सू महशर हुआ करेंगे
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning

If the Day of Judgment should come upon your abode, every corner of your street shall become a gathering place.

Explanation

This powerful couplet explores the depth of devotion. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that if the world itself were to end, and that apocalypse was caused by the beloved, the sheer intensity of the emotion would transform the beloved's street into a gathering place for judgment. It's a hyperbolic expression, showing that the beloved's influence is so profound, it makes even the end of the world seem like a natural consequence of their presence.
