शु'ऊर चाहिए है इम्तियाज़ करने को
— Mir Taqi Mir

You are still a boy, how can you know my worth. I need a sense to understand and explore this worth.
Explanation
This beautiful couplet, by Mir Taqi Mir, speaks to the complexity of love and self-awareness. The poet says, 'You are still young, how can you know my value?' He continues, 'You need sensitivity... to appreciate it!' It's a subtle challenge, implying that the beloved's immaturity prevents them from understanding the depth of the poet's feelings. It's a poignant reflection on unappreciated depth.
