हर सहर हादिसा मिरी ख़ातिर भर के ख़ूँ का अयाग़ निकले है
— Mir Taqi Mir

Meaning

Every morning, a new incident has emerged for me, as if overflowing with blood.

Explanation

This powerful couplet speaks to a life lived in constant drama and consequence. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that simply existing is an event in itself. Every morning brings a new incident, and the evidence of this tumultuous existence—the 'footprint'—is stained with blood. It's a profound meditation on the cost of passion, the weight of reputation, and the inevitable suffering that accompanies a life of deep feeling.
