Sun Kar Kisi Se Vo Bhi Kehne Laga Tha Kuch Kuch — Mir Taqi Mir
सुन कर किसी से वो भी कहने लगा था कुछ कुछ
बे-दर्द कितने बोले हाँ उस को क्या हुआ था
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
Hearing from someone, even he started saying something; how many painlessly spoke 'yes,' what happened to him?
Explanation
This powerful couplet speaks to the deep pain of gossip and rumors. The poet is lamenting how even the beloved started speaking after hearing something from others. But the true agony lies in the 'be-dard' (heartless people) who spoke so much—they were utterly oblivious to the pain they were causing. It’s a poignant reflection on the cruelty of casual talk and the burden of overheard secrets.
