सौ बार हम ने गुल के कहे पर चमन के बीच
भर दी हैं आब-ए-चश्म से रातों को क्यारियाँ
Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning

Despite speaking a hundred times about the garden's flowers, what little trenches have been made with the spring water in the heart of the garden over the nights?

Explanation

This couplet is a profound expression of persistent, almost obsessive sorrow. The poet speaks of having filled their nights with tears—the 'water of the eyes'—a hundred times, merely because of the words spoken by the flowers in the garden. The flowers often symbolize the beloved's beauty or their deceptive promises. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that the pain is not just from a single incident, but a recurring, cyclical agony, triggered by the mere presence or whisper of beauty. It’s a deeply melancholic meditation on unfulfilled yearning.
