बहस है नाक़िसों से काश फ़लक मुझ को इस ज़ुमरे से निकाल रखे
— Mir Taqi Mir
Meaning

The poet wishes that the heavens would remove him from this group of imperfect souls, tired of debating with the flawed people.

Explanation

This profound couplet speaks to the weariness of the soul. Mir Taqi Mir expresses the burden of arguing or debating with people who are fundamentally flawed or imperfect. He doesn't just want to leave the conversation; he wishes for a cosmic intervention—for the heavens themselves to remove him from this flawed company. It is a poignant cry of disillusionment, suggesting that sometimes, the company we keep is heavier than the struggle itself.
