The pain of love that does not leave me, I too am disheartened, as if afflicted by the sickness of love.

This powerful couplet speaks to the chronic nature of romantic suffering. Mir Taqi Mir says that the pain of love (Azaar-e-Mohabbat) never leaves you, it persists forever. Because this pain is so constant, the lover himself becomes despondent, realizing that he, too, is suffering from a 'sickness of love.' It’s a profound depiction of how love transforms from a beautiful feeling into a constant, debilitating illness.
