क्या कहूँ तुझ से कि क्या देखा है तुझ में मैं ने इशवा-ओ-ग़मज़ा-ओ-अंदाज़-ओ-अदा क्या क्या कुछ
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning

What shall I tell you about what I have seen in you; honor, and sorrow, and style, and grace—what many things.

Explanation

This masterpiece by Mir Taqi Mir beautifully captures the overwhelming feeling of falling deeply in love. The poet is struggling to put into words the sheer depth of the beloved's charms—her enchanting glance (Ishwa), her lovely smile (Gamza), her style (Andaaz), and her grace (Ada). It's a moment of poetic helplessness, where the beauty is so profound it defies description.
