कासा-ए-सर को लिए माँगता दीदार फिरे
'मीर' वो जान से बेज़ार गदा मैं ही हूँ
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
For the sight of my beloved, my heart yearns and wanders; 'Mir', I am the servant, weary of this life's strife.
Explanation
This profound couplet captures the essence of desperate longing and self-awareness. The poet asks, 'For the sake of my head, I ask to wander in the sight (of the beloved).' Then, he turns to himself, addressing 'Mir,' saying, 'O supplicant, I myself am weary of life.' It's a powerful declaration that the desire for the beloved's glance is so intense, it eclipses even the desire to live. It speaks to the depths of sacrificial love.
