Sukhan AI
जब नाम तिरा लीजिए तब चश्म भर आवे
इस ज़िंदगी करने को कहाँ से जिगर आवे
Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning

When I take your name, tears overflow; where do I find the heart to live this life?

Explanation

This profound couplet captures the agony of overwhelming love. Mir Taqi Mir describes a paradox: the very act of remembering the beloved's name (your name) brings forth tears. The emotion is so intense that he questions the source of his strength—where does he find the courage (jigar) to continue living this life? It's a beautiful surrender to passion, where existence itself feels unbearable without the beloved.
