Marg-e-Majnun Se Aql Gum Hai Mir — Mir Taqi Mir

मर्ग-ए-मजनूँ से अक़्ल गुम है 'मीर' क्या दिवाने ने मौत पाई है
— Mir Taqi Mir

Meaning

From the path of Majnun, reason is lost, O Meer. Has any lover found death?

Explanation

This profound couplet questions the very nature of madness and existence. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that the intellect (aql) is lost merely by walking the path of a lover like Majnu. The poet then asks: has the madman truly found death? It's a philosophical query, suggesting that the depth of passion and the pursuit of unattainable love can be more consuming than actual death itself.
