ख़ूबी का उस की बस-कि तलबगार हो गया गुल बाग़ में गले का मिरे हार हो गया
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning

He has become someone who merely seeks her perfection, and in the garden of roses, my necklace is lost.

Explanation

This beautiful couplet captures the overwhelming nature of attraction. The poet states that he has become simply a seeker of her beauty, her very essence. The second line is a poignant metaphor: in the garden of flowers, he lost his necklace. This loss isn't just physical; it represents the loss of his composure, his dignity, or his self, all due to the intoxicating power of the beloved's beauty.
