In this era, what has happened to divine love? What has happened to loyalty and grace?

This profound couplet is a lament on the state of modern spirituality and relationships. Mir Taqi Mir questions what has become of 'divine love' (Ilahi Mohabbat) in the current era. He observes that people have abandoned the principles of unwavering loyalty (Wafa) and inherent character or grace (Murawwat). It’s a powerful critique, suggesting that the spiritual depth and commitment once associated with true love have diminished with the times.
