Ghayron Hi Ke Sukhn Ki Taraf Gosh-e-yaar The — Mir Taqi Mir
ग़ैरों ही के सुख़न की तरफ़ गोश-ए-यार थे
इस हर्फ़-ए-ना-शिनो ने हमारी न मानियां
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
My beloved's ear was inclined toward the whispers of strangers, but this letter of 'Na' and 'Shin' did not listen to our plea.
Explanation
This couplet captures the profound pain of emotional neglect. The poet laments that the beloved's attention was constantly drawn towards the chatter and gossip of strangers. He feels utterly disregarded, to the point where even a desperate, pleading word—a name or a plea—was completely ignored. It is a heartbreaking portrait of unreciprocated love and the indifference of the heart.
