शर्त सलीक़ा है हर इक अमर में
'ऐब भी करने को हुनर चाहिए
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
There is a kind of grace or artistry in every immortal soul; one must possess the skill to even make a mistake.
Explanation
This couplet is a profound commentary on the nature of mastery. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that true artistry isn't confined to perfection; rather, it lies in the ability to fail or make a mistake with style. To possess 'hunar' (skill) is to know how to commit an 'aib' (flaw). It elevates imperfection from a defect to a deliberate, masterful act. It teaches us that even our flaws, when presented with grace, become part of our unique beauty.
