Us Waaste Kaanpun Hun Ki Hai Ah Nipta Sarad — Mir Taqi Mir
उस वास्ते काँपूँ हूँ कि है आह निपट सर्द
ये बाव कलेजे के कहीं पार न होवे
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
Because of this, I tremble, for the sigh is so cold, / These wild hearts can never cross its way.
Explanation
This profound couplet captures the intense fear and emotional paralysis of the heart. The poet, Mir Taqi Mir, speaks of a trembling, not because of external cold, but because the internal state is so overwhelming. The heart, being 'bawa' (restless or insane), feels incapable of finding peace or crossing any boundary. It is the fear of one's own deep emotions that truly chills the soul.
