Jite Ji Ah Tire Kuche Se Koi Na Fira — Mir Taqi Mir
जीते जी आह तिरे कूचे से कोई न फिरा
जो सितम-दीदा रहा जा के सो मर कर निकला
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
Even while alive, no one ever wandered from your paths; only those who endured suffering were found after death.
Explanation
This profound couplet speaks to the bitter realization of a lover. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that while he was alive, no one ever dared to walk away from the Beloved's path. Only those who endured great pain and suffering—the 'sitam-deeda'—were able to leave, and even they had to die to do so. It's a powerful meditation on the permanence of love's memory and the depth of the beloved's influence.
