What complaint do you have regarding the tearing of the letter? This, sir, is written by your own destiny.

This profound couplet speaks to the inevitability of fate. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that complaining about minor damages, like a torn letter, is pointless. The true, unchangeable reality—the separation, the pain, the journey—is not caused by external forces or mistakes, but is written by one's own destiny (Tala'). It is a powerful reflection on accepting what life dictates.
