The Shayar says that he is unique in his conduct, because the flaws of others simply pass by.

This couplet speaks of the unique burden of the self. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that while the faults or 'scandals' of others are easily accepted or overlooked by society, there is a distinct difference in the struggles or behaviors of the poet himself. It is a profound moment of self-reflection, where the poet feels his own pain or difference is perceived with more scrutiny and weight than the perceived flaws of others. It speaks to the isolation of the artistic soul.
