आते हैं मुझे ख़ूब से दोनों हुनर-ए-इश्क़
रोने के तईं आँधी हूँ कुढ़ने को बला हूँ
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
I have both skills of love very well. I am a storm for crying and a calamity to be endured.
Explanation
This profound couplet by Mir Taqi Mir speaks to the duality of intense love. The poet suggests that he possesses a unique, almost dangerous charm—a 'skill' (हुनर) that attracts lovers. He is simultaneously a 'storm' (आँधी) that evokes tears, and a 'calamity' (बला) that binds people to him. It's a declaration of intoxicating, irresistible emotional power.
