Mir Ko Kyun Na Muqhtanim Jane — Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
Literally, it means that why shouldn't the opportunistic person know that this remains in the next people.
Explanation
This profound couplet suggests that true understanding or insight is not found in the present moment or within one's immediate circle. Mir Taqi Mir implies that the opportunistic person (muqtanim), who always seeks advantage, will eventually realize a deeper truth. This truth resides not where we look, but in the people who come after, or in the future itself. It's a meditation on destiny and the timing of realization.
