If you are a friend like this, then it is good. Better than one who possesses wealth.

This profound couplet by Mir Taqi Mir speaks to the true measure of human connection. It teaches us that the company of a genuine friend, however imperfect, is infinitely more valuable than the vast wealth or material possessions of a rich person. Mir suggests that friendship is a treasure that money can never buy. It is a powerful reminder to prioritize relationships over riches.
