As many you were yesterday, you are not today; you keep flowing, like a moving stream.

Mir Taqi Mir captures the painful reality of time's relentless flow. The poet observes that what was possessed yesterday is lost today, emphasizing that even the smallest things slip away. The 'Aab-e-Rawan' (flowing water) is a metaphor for time itself. It speaks to the transient nature of life and love, reminding us that nothing stays the same, and we must accept this constant change.
