कुछ नहीं सूझता हमें उस बिन
शौक़ ने हम को बे-हवास किया
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
We find nothing pleasing without you; our passion has driven us to madness.
Explanation
This couplet captures the essence of being completely lost in love. Mir Taqi Mir is saying that life makes no sense or nothing is understandable without the presence of the beloved. The 'shauq' (passion/intense desire) has taken him to a state of utter madness. It's a powerful declaration of emotional dependence, suggesting that the beloved's existence is the only reason for his understanding or sanity.
