Junoon Teri Minnat Hai Mujh Par Ki Tu Ne / Na Rakkha Mire Sar Pe — Mir Taqi Mir

जुनूँ तेरी मिन्नत है मुझ पर कि तू ने न रक्खा मिरे सर पे बार-ए-गरेबाँ
— Mir Taqi Mir

Meaning

Your plea is madness upon me, that you did not place the burden of strangers upon my head.

Explanation

This deeply emotional couplet speaks of the overwhelming power of love. The poet suggests that his madness and passion (junoon) are a result of the beloved's grace or pity (minnat). The true agony isn't the burden of the world or separation, but rather the fact that the beloved never imposed that weight upon him. It's a poignant expression of undeserved affection.
