रंग-रफ़्ता भी दिल को खींचे है
एक शब और याँ सहर देखो
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
Even if the colors fade, it still attracts the heart; it suggests seeing another night and a morning.
Explanation
This couplet beautifully captures the struggle between lingering attachment and the harsh reality of time. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that even the gradual, subtle changes in a situation or relationship are mesmerizing—they pull the heart back. But he reminds us that this beauty is temporary. There is a limit to the enchantment; after one night more, the dawn, and thus the inevitable change, will arrive.
