कुछ बे-सबब नहीं है ख़ातिर मिरी परेशाँ दिल का अलम जुदा है ग़म जान का जुदा है
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning

The Shayar says that my distress for you is not without reason; my heart's pain is separate, and the soul's sorrow is apart.

Explanation

Mir Taqi Mir beautifully distinguishes between superficial worry and deep, intrinsic sorrow. The poet is saying that his restlessness isn't random or baseless. There is a profound reason behind his anxiety. He draws a clear line between the pain felt in the heart (dil ka alam) and the sorrow that permeates the soul (gham jaan ka). It suggests that true emotional suffering is complex, layered, and deeply rooted, not merely a passing mood.
