दिल गया होश गया सब्र गया जी भी गया
शग़्ल में ग़म के तिरे हम से गया क्या क्या कुछ
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
My heart, my senses, my patience, and even my life are lost; what all have you taken from me in your sorrowful spell?
Explanation
This profound couplet by Mir Taqi Mir captures the absolute surrender of the lover. The poet laments that the beloved's sorrow (gham) has stolen everything—the heart, the sanity, the patience, and even the very breath of life. It's not just physical pain; it's a total emotional dismantling. The beloved's presence, even through sorrow, is depicted as a devastating magic that leaves the lover utterly depleted.
