उसी का दम भरा करते रहेंगे
बदन में अपने जब तक नीम-जाँ है
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
As long as the life remains in the body, I will continue to quench the thirst of that very person.
Explanation
This powerful couplet speaks of an obsessive, inescapable love. The poet suggests that as long as the beloved's 'breath' or essence (Neem-jaan) remains within the lover's being, they will continue to live, breathing only that same devotion. It's a declaration that the beloved's presence, even in memory, is the very source of life itself. A profound expression of fatalistic attachment.
