मिरी ख़ाक-ए-तफ़्ता पर ऐ अब्र-ए-तर
क़सम है तुझे टक बरस ज़ोर से
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
By my dust, O cloud of sorrow, I swear to you that I will rain upon you with full force.
Explanation
This profound couplet is a declaration of ultimate devotion. Mir Taqi Mir is addressing the passing cloud (Aabr-e-Tar), asking it to blow fiercely upon his ashes. It suggests that the poet's existence, or his memory, is so deeply tied to the beloved that even death and dust cannot erase the impact of the love. It’s a dramatic plea for his love story to be remembered with immense force.
