The custom of coming and going in the abode of love is fresh; my laughter departs and crying flows like this.

This powerful couplet captures the inherent instability of love's journey. Mir Taqi Mir speaks about the 'ritual' (rasm) of coming and going in the realm of love, which he finds constantly changing. The heart is so volatile that the joy—the laughter—can vanish instantly, replaced by an overwhelming, unstoppable flow of tears. It’s a profound depiction of emotional exhaustion!
