यूँ कानों-कान गुल ने न जाना चमन में आह
सर को पटक के हम पस-ए-दीवार मर गए
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
The flower did not hear the sigh in the garden's ear, and we died by hitting our heads against the wall.
Explanation
This profound couplet captures the essence of silent despair. Mir Taqi Mir describes a pain so deep that even the blooming flowers (the vibrant world) could not hear a single sigh of sorrow in the garden. Yet, the suffering was so immense that the poet ultimately succumbed to it, dying by striking his head against the wall. It is a powerful testament to unacknowledged grief!
