टुक तर्क-ए-'इश्क़ करिए लाग़र बहुत हुए हम
आधा नहीं रहा है अब जिस्म-ए-रंज-फ़र्सा
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
Oh, please make your arguments of love, for we have become too attached; my body, which is afflicted by sorrow, cannot endure half of it.
Explanation
This profound couplet is a cry of utter exhaustion from the depths of the heart. The poet pleads, 'Please abandon this charade of love; we are utterly weary.' The second line elevates the suffering to a physical plane, stating that this body, already worn thin by sorrow, can no longer endure even half the burden. It is a powerful declaration of emotional and spiritual burnout, a plea for mercy from the torment of unrequited love.
