Ab Ki Hawa-e-gul Mein Saerabi Hai Nihayat — Mir Taqi Mir
अब की हवा-ए-गुल में सैराबी है निहायत
जू-ए-चमन पे सब्ज़ा मिज़्गान-ए-चश्म-ए-तर है
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning
In the current air of roses, there is an overwhelming intoxication; upon the lawn, the fresh greenness is the decoration of the eye.
Explanation
Mir Taqi Mir paints a picture of intoxicating beauty. He says the air of the flowers today is overwhelmingly intoxicating, a state of beautiful delusion. Then, he compares the lush greenery of the garden path to the fringe of tear-filled eyes. It’s a subtle, poignant comparison—the beauty is so overwhelming, it seems almost painful, like tears that never fall!
